Running thick
Winter cold
Causing a
Mudding effect

Permanent stamp
Upon my
Changing being

Tasting of cheese sticks at Applebee’s. Great going in. And going down. Void of sustenance. Leaving regret behind. What is lasting sex? 15 minutes?…
Long Haul Words popping Into my liquid mind The recent hike With a young man Ever present I’m not about going faster I’m about going longer Sharing the turtle analogy Over-enthusiasm and bullheadedness of no use Pushing through everything No longer desiring The pain and loneliness Coming with This choice in life Ahh, the wisdom…
