Jodi
Jodi Arias responded to
my Match.com ad
after 2013 we’ll begin to forget her
and in five years
the next generation
won’t recognize the name
any more than they recognize Love Canal
but she was the one who stabbed her boyfriend
so many times
strangled him
shot him
he was a monster in a horror film
and she couldn’t rest until she was sure
he was dead.
In response to my ad
she wrote:
Yes, I have some baggage, but don’t we all?
No, I don’t know how long I’ll live, but does anyone?
Sure, I talk in platitudes, but who is capable of original thought these days?
Yes, we may have to suffer a commuter marriage, but many people do.
I’m going through a hard patch right now, “twenty miles of bad road,” but again…
I thought:
all those things are true
Jodi is a modern woman
and a philosopher to boot
she’s squared away
and life with her would not be boring.

escribí esto recién, por si alguien quiere leer:
"[...]
el hervor de los hocicos hace derrochar el oro que guardan las encías,
se preserva la amenaza para que el miedo
nazca con la misma bocanada
por la que se extingue.
los pies descalzos entibiecen, despedazan de calor la bruma .
las palabras no enmiendan espacios vacíos,
solo habitan, fantasmagóricas, sin ocultar lo que está del otro lado.
[...] "
(en el blog está el texto completo si les interesa)

Sonnet for a guy I fucked at a conference
Heat rises and on the top floor of this hotel
it sticks. The wallpaper curls, rolling up in
ribbons to the ceiling and I can tell
it's done: get up boy, take it on the chin.
I was never hoping to find you there
but who could say no to a night alone?
Trains bloom and die; oh god I swear
I never do this. Pass me your phone
so we can never speak again
until I place your lanyard at your door
and feel nothing. Your brown eyes, then -
I think that's all I want, your poor
dog desperation and hapless virtue;
I never did worse than when I did you

FLOATER
i am the floater friend.
i am second to all.
i am the filler.
i am the friend that you tolerate.
i am who you talk to when your real friends aren’t available.
and when they are, you will cut me off mid sentence and make stupid jokes with them, laughing over nothing after i tried twice as hard to simply make you smile.
i am never special.
sought after.
appreciated.
i have been friends with nearly everyone in my grade at some point or another
but it seems i simply don’t belong.
