Run:

Like always I run

Clean state of mind

Beckoning me to the edges of the world.

Feet that lift off of concrete

Faster than how my soul flees

From anything that suddenly grows attached.

Always, I run.

Because how am I expected

To handle other human beings

When I cannot handle myself?

So,

I run.

~J.K.M.

Head In The Ground:

Twisted upside down

Feet dangling in the sky

As I inhale the dirt I buried myself in.

Cold and hard to breathe.

But the ground is where I ended up.

Not colliding with in a short jab,

Designed to wake me up.

No.

Shoved deeply into until I dry wretch mud.

Decomposing with the rest.

Inhaling dirt until I

Am nothing but

Dirt.

~J.K.M.
