hey

i can't lose my virginity again and again and again and again,

just so you'd feel like a conqueror. 

little accomplishments

.

.

.

.

.

.

lead to big ones.

in the near future

trembling hands

avoiding the news

type faces and spaces in between me

and you

drenched and tangled but laughing

out loud

electrical wires

surveying the streets

shoes pounding and pacing beyond

under mating birds

electrical wives

sweeping the floors
stacking lists on top cabinet shelves
listening to televised stories

and promises that hold on
to wires and those that are hung
from them.

because i said so

toronto, toh ron toh, toronow

here's a city not as busy as NYC but with a heart, as big.
it's a city that welcomes me with warm weather and friends that were missed and have missed, thankfully.
it might be my stopping point for now but a great starting point -- will i end up in london?uganda?iran?
hard to say.
but this is where i am building up a back bone to break and remake.
this is a cheesy post, i know. . . but after six weeks of ottawa, what do you expect?

It's a long ladder to climb, and I'm at the moment contemplating whether I'm on the right one, headed for the right roof, or if I should just jump on a balloon.
