No One.Today, I've got grief the size of pancakes for someone I never even loved. Today I Have grief the consistency of egg yolks covering my hair and lips. "It's okay," you say tonight to no one. And no one listens with contempt. She says nothing is what it seems in this place. This place between care and uncare, love and unlove.No One.
Every lover No One has ever had has been her brilliant lion. More a name
than a title, more a title than a diagnosis. Diagnonsense. As if some Freudian theory could save a wretched girl like No One. As if any thoughts made any sense to yo


IntrovertI write because I hope to find someone who understands when I replace "phallus" with "love," "vagina" with "desire," every raunchy sentence holds the complexity of an eyelid to an amoeba. I notice that "todos," in Spanish, "every" looks quite like "to do" and I wonder if that symbolizes the thoughts I should have every time we meet, you and I, significant no one; the things you never tell me "to do."Introvert

Think about it - the way that credit cards, bougainvillea, vacations, dictionaries, the road on the way to work will
all never be enough. The poet wishes
with her deepest bones
and writes that she wishes
she would have killed you
in the supermarket. She wonders why
she ever loved you in song.
She publishes book after book. Each line detailing how your hair is ugly and monstrous in the morning. And how,
like moss, you cling to her
