Twig the Wonder Kid

✨ infinitely gentle ✨ infinitely suffering ✨

i have no words

birds of silence
nest in my mouth

cold eggs
on a dry tongue

@ecosmiths @MarkHertling @nytimes If the Russian boys have low morale now……..imagine what they’ll be like when winter arrives……..they may just give up and go home. Slava Ukraini !

@Shawhelp @FunkCityGuy Big thank you to all your technicians working to reconnect us……it’s still windy take care!

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

i keep all
the beautiful days
in an old shoe box

with the letters
& the photos

& the dust 
that smells of
grandma

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

I’ve been self isolating
for years

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

and now we see
as if a veil has parted

his tender chalice
filled with love & dust

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

untroubled now
flying beyond the pain

beating wings
beat softly

and closing eyes
i feel your hand in mine again

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

each rebirth
returns me

a slightly
paler version
of my former self

until i fade
until i fade
until i fade away

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

you touched that
which is perishable

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

the tomorrows
that you promised me

casting cruel shadows
on my path

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

the endless slumber
drowns the years

as though around
the stillness crowd

the frightening
blooms of silent tears

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

only now
in faded photos

the hidden sadness
in your smile

the years reach out
& then are gone

silent anniversary

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

the words
i never said to you

bloom like roses
in a darkened room

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

for as much as
i have known

so as much
i have forgotten

meaning to remember
i have only ever lost

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

@apahkah13 They’re John King’s blood pressure readings!

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

you've been digging
in the garden
of human kindness

you've got mud
on your boots
and blood on your hands

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

my doubts
are gathering

like old women
around a dead horse

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

i'm giving love
you're taking it

together we're perfect

although i'm
diminishing daily

like a lake
in a hot summer

[Twig the Wonder Kid @lordtwig]

a land so old
even the dust
whispers your name
