Everything turns blue
if you dissect it
even the color purple.
I feel how words exit
like last night’s
whiskey shots
as the burning sensation
warmed my insides
along with your hand upon
my skin. The combination
was deadly
sin.
Just because I listen to my voices
does not mean
you need to.
You go about and leave me
in this shallow water
it’s not cold at all
actually,
my illness has gone
my hands are warm again
my feet touching the ground
but my imagination
it creates blame
for misunderstanding
my own intentions.
Often, you deny it all
and I believe all the
lies. The fact is
I am a consensus
a Canadian statistic
and now I am
growing my own garden
seeds intact
you on top of me
digging deep inside me
for all the answers
to the questions
you can never ask.

Wow, incredibly real and visual!!
Thank you Dustin
Love this. And if you’re ever in Vegas make sure to share a shot of whiskey with me.
Yes! for sure, I haven’t been in a long time! I need to go back and confuse myself with the day/night illusion, gamble, eat well, and go to shows. Need it badly. xo
Do you visit the States often?
Yes
That’s awesome!! 🙂 Where have you been?

So…this one was easy. This lady is phenomenally talented. I’ve done a review on her chapbook already. But I could wax poetic about her words any day. She is a gorgeous lady and her words are raw, yet beautiful. She digs in deep, never sugar-coating anything. She doesn’t just write. She lives in each line.
If you don’t follow her, you should. – A
