i can't hear you beating
your hands across the sky
like a whimpering dawn
pink and pale purple, stringing along a chain of
endless Sundays.
we march and martyr
in spite of (or perhaps because) of
an early spring
it is warm too suddenly
and my jackets are too heavy to carry
i can't give much thought to action
an arsonist with water for fire.
escape these petty instruments and protocols
enveloped in my sweet sadness
moist to the touch, damp with expectations and
dew. something new.
save my hopes in the cuff of your pants
underneath the hat i got you
in Jamaica.
if you put the horseshoe upside down,
all the luck spills out
saturates the centuries
the mystified hoards of inaction and good intent
spread across the span of the couch
with thick extremities of muscle and plaid
like honey on toast
you shan't be drenched in it
should you venture closer?
Greetings, fellow dating site denizen,
Let me tell you a little bit about me, so that you may then have the tools to decide whether this venture merits further investigation.
I am from the east coast, and I think I identify with whatever connotations are associated with that (more grits, less granola?). However, I have lived in the Oakland for about three years all told, and some of that has definitely rubbed off on me.
I have a bright personality and sheer joy for life that bleeds out of every pore. I am rarely cranky (except during menstruation times) and have generally contagious high spirits.
I get excited about science, informal learning, evaluation methods, philosophy, toe socks, and going to the beach. I dislike mustaches but Love beards. I like salt and pepper hair.
I lead a very busy life, but I make time for the things I want to do. I like to be active, whether it be going out on hikes, checking out new bars or restaurants, or going to museums. I love to try new things.
I am not very judgmental (except for you, because this is a dating site..) and feel like there are many ways to live life, and that there is no inherently good or bad way to live it, just a series of choices.
I have finally reached a point in my life in which I have a steadfast plan that I am really excited about, though my future is by no means mapped out.
I think I am going to really enjoy my thirties, in a different way than I enjoyed my 20s. Young enough to still engage in all the active pursuits I want, and old enough to know what it feels like to be comfortable and confident in my own skin.
I can be silly or serious, but always passionate.
I live life deliberately.
(:
