settles on skin like crystals,

Single Dad on Mother’s Day

useful as teats on a boar / i keep the blinds twisted shut / steam another cup / tweak the strings on martin / and wonder if the son is having fun / across the river’s chasm

Miserable Smoking Child Cardiologist

I have to tell the babies when they're dead; It's all the universe needed me for. It's like bending horseshoes into poodles.
