Breakups:

I seemed to know more about them at 16 than I do at 26.

stolen clip from a longer piece:



in the end, in your boredom you move

right through me like ghosts

through the woodwork of houses,

like termites chewing away at my beams,

jaws full of sawdust and this is how I speak to you,

empty palms and toothless,

my meanness spilling out on your shoe

and you wipe it away like a stain.
