Long time no exceedingly long post.
Today was my last day at my s&m assistant/corporate training job.
I switch coasts in two nights from now. I've got giant piles of things to take with me & I have no idea if even 2/3rds will fit.
It's the last few days before take-off that bother me much more than the traveling. In my head, I'm already out the door. Living in limbo's sort of how I roll. Makes leaving hurt less, I guess. I also feel a bit heartless.
Less than 60 hours & then goodbye California for probably 9 months.

W.W.W.W.W.H.
think long on it
how on earth to spell
thin with the i
as in In- the-in

why lose -not lOse (lOh se)
looz - loze
where's fo-netics when
they're needed?

& if she jumped
from the Golden
Gate -what time could
it av been
if she did she leave
her purse behind
did she where'd she leave
the note & if in
her purse -if left behind
a walk by picks up
abandoned pockabook
& if they'd open it
to find SuiCide NotE
where would it they it go?

(who edits obituaries?
good health benefits?)
clean up eulogy
tighten up our prayers

inspiration forgotten
in day are packed
with waiting for
tentative plans to
fall through again

air dry pours clogged
in sweat ears ring
big smiles -hide
from each other
in patchy darkness

summer closes up
shop & time is
tight -expendable
rude sonabitch
assumptions estimations

stare screen & empty
missed call & no message
holding petty grudges
shrugs & mind-slips
rub ill -private scowls

hourglass drips runs low
temp time world change
squeeze in
squeeze ever so tight
& slip slip slip away
