i wish i had a longer fuse
or understood how to deal with the concept of
actual siblings
or something
to make me less
full of stress
when kip’s family comes to visit
short poem day
November 27, 2025
silly b-day times
with pies for breakfast
and original mystery afternoons
and i’m still so stoked to see
my birthday date
scrawled across the top of
everything
today
[happy b-day to me!]

will i,
once i get back,
be back into
some semblance
of a morning
habit
with these words?
that would be nice
that would be nice

evening poems
while william shatner
tells me all the unexplained mysteries
i should care about
but i simply
don’t
~~~
big yawns
and split-up sleep
and hopefully getting
the cat to eat
or take her meds
at least
[almost done with this trip
and i’m so excited to sleep
in my own bed
once again]
~~~
but seeing people has been absolutely lovely —
i wouldn’t exchange that
for anything
[even eight uninterrupted hours]

sometimes
these text posts
and written memes
feel like poetry to me.

nineteen days total
eighteen in the room
[seventeen for me]
[thank goodness]
[thank goodness]

something about this experience
has taught me how much i [one person] can do
in one day
[but also how much time is actually devoted to arriving places on time
while everyone else is also trying to arrive in a similar place on time]

the apprehension
the tension
the aches and pains of
just sitting
sitting
sitting
forever
[what other horrors does a 9-5 bring?]
October 31, 2025
At least
[at least]
We still have
[for now]
Halloween
October 30, 2025
with a long slew of
tough days
and busy nights
and sleepless dreams
behind me
i know
i know
i’ll catch up
i’ll catch up
eventually
i’m just so excited this is
almost over
