When I say I miss

the earthquakes

I just now understood

We love suffering 

and pleasure

We orgasm in conversations

and dive into life

completely

No one notices

the stripes but us

It's all love

 How very different 

your life would be

were you named Derek

Don't let yourself

be in the way

of being yourself

Junk mail and crusaders

share the same pod

inside my brain

Promise me more things
