yarn upon yarn

standing there throwing darts
when you couldn't start a fire
crumbling infrastructure of a feeble mind
lies they echo in an abandoned lava tube
dancing circles around 
Spring came early
discovering the carcass left behind
flippant response from the brother
it's chilling really exhale to inhale

eyes opened wide
we said a lot of things that we didn't mean
writing I love you in the non-existent cake
still looking for that lost chapel (Cadlew?)
living is an adventure
one you gave up on
where did the keys come from?
twisted murky oil dancing in water
culprit of the night

his smug response lost in pride
weathered by war
nonsensical hoard of words
reasons why it went unpublished
just trudging along, hustling along
'tis the season
can't be bothered
same blue sky over Texas
as I knit another row
