pure spirit

a travelling song for david
(he's the second man in)
and also for beverley, who inspired my path
thanks to you both, wherever it is that we go...

and then, the opposite:
made a new friend tonight
small world, one of his best friends is the girl my "the one" dumped me for
fag hag suits me just fine
at least it never matters who they're fucking behind your back

come home to a mailbox full of collection notices belonging to various exes
children, losers, users, suckers, believers...the lines blur

on the plus side, i ate quince today
something to cross off my life to-do list
i'd go back for more
