something; make it a word and a blow."

Like “love,” “hope” is one of those ridiculously disproportional words that by all rights should be a lot longer.

-Harry Dresden, Turn Coat

The starry-eyed idealists of today have submerged their critical faculties beneath a tidal wave of slop marketed by those old hippies who now sell a user-friendly dilution of their original enlightenment.

And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.

At the four winds bar

In sleep,

Your hand clasps my wrist

As you slip deeper

I expect you to relax, release --

Instead you hold tighter;

Even in sleep , you hold fast.

I listen to the sound of your breath

And lay my head on your shoulder

I had a dream last night --
you took my hand and said to me:
Rise.

I think about you
Every single day --
If you're not
in my arms
I'm missing you

Last night,
just before sleep
it seemed you
were between us --
each with an arm
around you, at
shoulder and waist.
You were content,
and slept smiling
as I watched
the two of you
feeling whole.
