Anxious thoughts
Middle of december
A half downed tree
Peaking from the woods
Feral cats
Scatter in confusion
Birds to feast
Insides on the outsides
Nature's waste
Rotting at the roots
Disruptive wind
Echoes in the brush
Feline pounce
Feathers in the teeth
Empty nest
Flattened in the uproar
Animals
They live and die in motion
Mother bird
Your wings were slow
Broken fence
Divet in the center
A foot or two
Floating from the ground
Wire twist
Like vines tangled upwards
7am
Frost covered windshield
Cigarettes
And the onlook as a voyeur
Siren sounds
Neighbors in the stupor
Some yards away
Cautious in the wreckage
Camera focus
The sky is shades of orange
Light snow
Comes falling on the ribcage
Baby bird
I hope you got away
Nature nor violence
Cares for your parents
Screams in the wild
Remind you of childhood

Nature nor violence
Cares for your parents
Screams in the wild
Bring you to childhood
Nature nor violence
Takes back the years you
Screamed in a pillow
Reliving your teenage years
Nature nor violence
Replace the drugs you
Used as defiance
To block out the memories
Nature nor violence
Cares that your parents
Screamed at you pointless
Ly just to feel something
Nature and violence
Bring back the times you
Gave up on trying to
To find any meaning here

Almost like a daydream
Nights are getting long
Feeding all the ferals
Sat across the road
Begging for their food when
I get up for work
Fills my heart with saccharine
Gives me a sort of purpose
Now where the hell is helmet
Worrying the worst
Wonder if hes fast asleep
Belly full of food
Seven in the morning
First a sigh of relief then a scream when i saw he was missing half his head
Eight in the morning
Barely breathing all this death
And he spoke to me
Like in a fairy tale
Ancient and calming
Talked in a slow detail
I love what you have done
For me for us all this time
Youve gave your all for me
Now i can sleep in peace
I scream in protest
I cant leave you here all alone
He smiled through the pain
Said this is how it has to be
I cant forgive this nature
I cant forgive the violence

Its been almost three years now
Repeating things in vein profound
A stable refrain
Of life with your name
I hope theres purpose for us all
Like it should
God it shouldn't be this hard to breath
An abandoned home
Where we first decided to name them
Top of the head
The silliest things we could think of
A constant note
Of all the good we can make up
Some days are worse
Death is always but so can be the light
And maybe thats enough
And maybe thats all ive ever needed
A hand to hold when all things blur against the fog
I look at you smile at the future for once
Now i can barely find the words
To tell you what you mean to me
The best i can do
Is be there for you
And never
I mean never
Hold you fown
