Hospitality To love a stranger It need not be much For one who has little Will appreciate it
Long and slender Her every movement Deliberate and graceful Composed as She listens quietly
Antisocial tendencies Amplified by sickness I can people watch Yet I can’t people talk I am lonely
Algunos me gusta compartir Calientitos Justo cuando salgan del horno Que no se enfríe Por eso lo escribí
La presión atrapada Busca por donde salir Tapo mi boca Se me sale por los ojos Tapo mis ojos
My pump Constant companion Of my disease My sensor Resembles a feeding

A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
If I was in a beauty pageant My talent would be 'Lefty who writes upside-down’ Beside the contestant Who burps her ABC’s
If I could paint a man Eyes so dark they shine Brooding and stormy Til the smile breaks through If I could paint a man
A noisy restaurant Listen Focus Beyond the dishes The music
Have you ever felt A hole inside of you Something dead inside Where your heart Is supposed to be?
