there

T͟Her

there are no heroes

there are no heroes
there is only this awful
noble decision

i twist as i fall 
and cling to the rumor that 
there is no bottom

there are some decades 
when nothing happens and weeks 
when decades happen

if death can find me
anywhere then there is no
safe space in this world

in this happy home 
there is neither time nor place 
for the negative

there is wisdom in
making the best of the worst
and the worst of none

there are many more
horses' asses in the world
than there are horses

prison is a place
in places there are people
and in people friends

if you want to pause
before putting it out there
put it in haiku

i have determined
to live in the arena
so i will die there
