Up Against Limitations

"You're still a little kid." - My dad, when I asked him if he wanted to see a photograph of me as a little kid

 pie tin: half full?

There is nothing in the entire universe I want as much as he wants food.

"Are You Sleeping Alone?"

My sinuses are about to explode

Because of all the tears

I haven't cried for you.

There is such pressure

Behind my right eye

Because I haven't seen you since February.

It's seven in the morning

And my mother is talking to me

About canceling a doctors appointment

Or scheduling a doctors appointment

Or rescheduling a doctors appointment

And all I wan to do is take a shit

To get rid of the dream that I had about you last night

Again

Again

Again 

Again 

Again.
