    well...I can cry for all different kinds of reasons...sometimes it's just that there's too much emotions at once...too much to process....often, it's because I am helpless to change something (this might be a masculine reason for crying...)

    Inside the walls of a heart
    Reside the remains of past,
    And all pitside is the future.
    Inside the walls of a heart
    One gets Cabin Fever
    And sweet smells, delicate.
    Days climb past, askew,
    While the months of yourself
    Pile up a barricade of love
    Inside the walls of a heart.

    And here you lay
    Asleep and asleep
    And I no longer afraid
    As the light drapes you
    halfdark
    I will shift slowly
    slowly
    Dare not crash this
    One Singular Breathsmelling Moment

    To challenge love's govern just once.

    I feel as though I should have a birthday poem for you today, but it's not actually my birthday yet, so maybe I'll have one tommorow! Here is what I do have:

    With the Body I Go

    The cats, unused to seeing me
    So early in the morning, peer quizzically
    As I move about the room naked and bloated,
    Smelling my armpits and drinking fervently water.
    I am not certain how many times the cats have seen a nude human.

    I settle on the couch
    And they seem to forget that I am here.
    They proceed about their own nonsense.
    I don't necessarily need them to notice me.

    It is dark, and much too silent.

    In the blackness, I can hear them licking.

    I can see why you say that....the last line is left rather open....perhaps I have started a new genre (actually I'm sure Poe did it...but I could bring it back!)

    ....and I no longer afraid....

    you sound like you've gone through a lot....what could you be afraid of?
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......

    One could say I've been through a lot, but all experience is really relative, no?

    This poem is more retrospective than anything else...I won't deny that I am the narrator of it...the fear is cheifly that of rejection...

    how went the job search?
    I've decided just to wait for a governmental job with the state to open up cause I need the benefits...for now...I'm also working on the play and
    helping out at the theatre company in town that I used to work for,
    Passage Theatre Company.
