They followed up with a phone call.

[StephenO @oy_stephen]

We stayed up at night, mouths open,
Heads in our tired, wrinkled hands—
Not thinking, just listening
To stories of the seven ghosts
Who killed our fathers
And devoured our mothers.
Our hands gave way,
And sleep took us in fits and starts.

[StephenO @oy_stephen]

On cold rainy nights
warm lazy days
we have sat by the window
our thoughts in a haze
dreading the landlord’s shadow...

[StephenO @oy_stephen]

I have friends in low places—
where the landlord’s shadow
comes before payday,
and the shelves brimmed with stories,
not bread.

They are the sons of fire, stone, and tin.
Bald as old prophets. We have no memories of our first hellos...

When I tell people I'm hungry and they reach into their pockets, I laugh at myself because their impulsive generosity indicates I couldn't communicate. I don't look hungry.

I'm hungry for the newer, better version of me - the one I've been envisioning for two decades.

@Opresii Same way your government didn't give you the life you have but will arrest and prosecute you if tried taking it.

Let's rewrite the pain of yesterday.
And wait for the healing on the way.

I have a desire, burning, to be different, even from myself. There's joy, I am sure, in what we pursue when we attain.
