I haven’t watched The Simpsons in like 20 years and I clearly stopped too soon

In fact, my heart often IS weak... 🎶❤️‍🩹🎶❤️‍🩹🎶❤️‍🩹

from across the grass
all day long this sun will shine
referee’s whistle

at her son's last drawing:
on a bald head
Zoloft, Prozac, Lithium ...
and a cracked heart

rose under streetlights 
heavy with humidity 
white gold as the moon

in this ghost town
not everything gone ...

Bloom
archipelagos in the irises,
glinting a brand new you.
I see you more today,

singing the blues
not sure whether they're joyful
or sad
a flood with motley memories
a crazed autumnal chorus

raging river
tamed by the dam
memories
flooding my mind
without restraint

starlit sky ...
breathe in, breathe out
the silence

breathe in, breathe out
no key to happiness
without it

all my life
I expect no grand bouquet
yet wish for
someone to greet me
with a single flower 😂
