People make me almost unbelievably mad and hurt my...
on an increasingly regular basis, and I’m nearly sure I’m beginning my rapid descent into becoming a curmudgeon which I had not planned on starting until I was at least 56.
But I can count on two hands the people I am completely sure of who love me and I love back, and they’ll always love me and I’ll always love them. Maybe at first that number seems small but I think...

Morning by Frank O'Hara
I’ve got to tell you how I love you always I think of it on grey mornings with death
in my mouth and the tea is never hot enough then and the cigarette dry the maroon robe
chills me I need you and look out the window at the noiseless snow
At night on the dock the buses glow like clouds and I am lonely thinking of flutes
I miss you always when I go to the beach the sand is wet with tears...
I have 63 days left in this town
Yesterday I was walking through the grocery store after seeing a movie with a friend. I felt so grown up, and I knew I was because my shoes were clicking on the linoleum and as a kid that’s what I thought made girls into women, when their shoes clicked on the linoleum in the grocery store.

I want to go home.
I’m thankful for where I am and I don’t want to be too complainy, but I just really, really want to go home.
Have not gotten to roast marshmallows on the fire in the backyard or eat dinner with my grandparents or be rudely woken up by my parents’ dog in much too long.

What the Living Do
Johnny, the kitchen sink has been clogged for days, some utensil probably fell down there. And the Drano won’t work but smells dangerous, and the crusty dishes have piled up
waiting for the plumber I still haven’t called. This is the everyday we spoke of. It’s winter again; the sky’s a deep, headstrong blue, and the sunlight pours through
