Tonight With Christopher Love

Wake up from your nap
and drag your still sleepy self
to the yoga dream.

No Rest For the Wicked

Teaching 8th graders,
then rejecting an old man,
end with grad students.

Simple

Talking with Denmo
on BART after rehearsal
makes me feel complete.

Be Aggressive

At the Purple House
--punk rock bouncing to Shit Storm--
I joined the mosh pit.

Distract Yourself from Yourself

I try to garden
but my brain wiggles in ways
that hurt; make me sad.

lucky for me mugwumpin

Frankie and Johnny:
cracked out rehearsals with the
funnest mo-fo's yet.

You Could Do Your Taxes or. . .

Wait for Jessie and
Adam. Spur of the moment
Tuesday Davis trip.

Between Friends

Libby came home late
last night, so sentimental,
(so drunk) she kissed me.

Weather Report

Winter turns colder.
Whispers of snow in San Fran.
February froze.

Wild Women

Some beers with Katy
leads me to drunk myspacing
and downloading songs.

It Don't Make No Sense

This doesn't have to
be as weird as I make it --
as weird as we are.

Missing

Missing your noises
quiet work in the office
while I nap upstairs.

Sweat Equity

It takes eight minutes
to walk my bike up the hill.
17th to home.

Match Point

Feel like a playah:
For the dinner party you
can invite one.

Some Gather Their Energy From Others

A long solo day
of too much in between time.
Friends will knock real soon.

And then it gets easier

Daffodil showed up.
My naughty clown with bent head.
A version of me.

To Face Your Clown

Totally afraid
of going back to clown class.
Does that mean something?

Motto Maker

Libby and I love
summer in February.
Free fun in the light.

She Knows Me Better Than I Thought

Denmo emails poems
to clarify last night's hard
unstoppable tears.

Unexpected Mornings

The portraits have rules
that Dave couldn't guess, but I
seem to have fewer.

William Randolph Hearst Built a Castle for an Opera Star

This American's
Life is pajamas driving
to So Cal's castle.
