i've been told it's a long way
to the end and that
just like a man
every car must die so
i guess i'll go out
someday smoking
on the highway and
just like a man
every beast longs for home
and to roll in distinct smells
familiar and tired.
oh, but like a man
i sigh on the neck
of the girl that captivates
my interests today
and i fear change
in my heart will
push so hard i'll
not be sure what
i can refuse or if
a cheap hotel will
see my soul
or my skin
someday and
just like a man i will breathe;
the filtered air of
buses and planes could
not satisfy the way
the sun suffocates
a summer day.
so just like a man
on the highway with
windows down i'll be
looking for my heart
in the great
wind.

Cuts
Dyke.
Fag.
Queer.
Words I've come to know as name.
They jeer and they push and they taunt.
I give them no tears, no blood, no hurt.
I remain as sturdy as stone.
Underneath I am crumbling.
Do they know each word is a cut?
A mentally inflicted wound?
With every sharp letter,
I am left with another hurt to heal.
What does it matter?
Why should I care?
Their ignorance should not bother me.
But it does and it will, forever.
I am still a person.
Still worth the attention and voice of any other.
But they don't care.
I'm worthless, useless, beneath them.
I'm gay.

Can't you hear it?
Can't you hear it?
You were dead before the day had even begun,

There was a stale taste in the air
as we set out,
though at the time I wouldn't have taken any notice of it.
Those fresh leather seats seemed so…
inviting.
We both knew we were well above the limits:
all of them.
Too fast, too high and too intoxicated.
And somewhere along the way,
time stopped.
For a fleeting moment there was sile

Why are you crying?
**I've lost something**
What did you lose?
**nothing becasue it never existed in the first place**
Than why are you sad?
**becasue nothing was everything I had**

I love how I feel like a traveler when I read this aloud. This poem itself is a journey.
