To be born human

How awful! My soul could have slid into anything

ANYTHING

A lion fierce warm strong

Why not a lion?

Or a redwood

I want to see the earth as a tree

Slowly

Growing without pain

Suddenly here I am

Here I am

Two legs two arms

Thumbs breasts eyelashes

But I am beautiful, I guess

In the same way that trash in a gutter

Is

Or war

Soul, slip out soon

My body aches

Im bored

move on

I listen to cover songs all night

 I think someone can always do better

 a voice better suited

oh look you didn’t think of this…!

 but isn’t it wonderful to grow & admit our mistakes with out a  smile or frown just an oh! Right…ill do better next time

 I want to do better I want to love

not just one person not just my cat not just novels & cigarettes I want to really love I want to talk to everyone the same I forget we all have lives( tunnel vision) i want to wake up without alarm clocks I want sparrow symphonies I want coffee all the time I want tea rivers I want clean water I want sunshine I want the night I want to flow I want to be okay with the seasons

 trees do it

 birds move

I put on a scarf & think its enough im not mean & think its enough but when I don’t put out anything to the universe how dare  I expect a knock on my door how silly to expect smiles why cant I say hi first why cant I get over myself

& just be.

 I feel bad for my cats they have to sleep under roofs & eat dry food & play with me I was a cat in a past life I was a queen I was a peasant I was a jerk I want to reach it

I will

 if I die on my way there, okay. At least I was going . at least I didn’t die in my bed after nine hours of sleep at least I didn’t die in ohio at least I didn’t die a completely horrible person I want to not be afraid of death isn’t it good?

Isn’t it good when a movie ends isn’t it good driving home after a two hour conversation & its closer to morning than midnight & you hear an old song on the radio that is played just for you just for that moment?

I want to be okay with endings & goodbyes I want to be excited for you for me I want to feel loss so that when it all comes around I am filled with twice as much as I had I want to wait I want to patient I want to know that you’ll call me every Monday for the rest of my life but you wont & I know it so why not accept

every time a bird sings you’ll know it’s a song from me I am the tide I am the ocean steady Ill be your vacation spot & in ten years when we all have kids I’ll meet them & in fifteen years when we all start going gray  we’ll vow not to dye our hair & in twenty five years when we are all divorced or alcoholics or poets or accidental grandparents or aging rockstars or hermits or salesmen we’ll still get drunk & laugh. In thirty years …oh lord…will we be at peace? I hope so. I hope we are singing the same songs, maybe with softer voices maybe with louder ones, but we will be singing together

all i want is a rocking chair

sunset shinin in her red red hair

 play a song to let the night come in

were all gathering memories again

take me west & let my soul fall out

 take me south & let my hair hang down

i feel peaceful & i feel fine

& my brothers here with his bottle of wine

i have all the family i need

takes me where our bones can breathe

 

this is my lullaby for tonight.

ohio oh oh god ohio why havent i left yet?
