Will You Be There
Will you be there?
At the river

Aquí en Michigan
Hace calor
Abuelita says
We find her in the kitchen of the apartment
Wearing nothing but a bra and a half slip.

Into the Mist
Someday this summer
I will cross through a mist
Gravity will release my burdens…

Passing
But he did die that morning
At 32 years old…
We Danced Naked
There is a time to mourn
a time to dance
and we dance naked…

The straight guy, brother, buddy, gay-friend lunch.
i thought of you while
driving south on the expressway
when i turned on my high beams
cause it was raining
and it was dark and, well…
i have astigmatism

We talk to monsters.
We talk to monsters
When the afternoon light is still good
Making home for us on this side…
