(2015)
Dedicated to my sister and our late night talks when this became my catchphrase.
Does it hurt? When you prick your finger No I do this just for fun Our fingers lose feeling
Most women are cooks But a man who cooks Is a chef She cooks over and over To feed the masses
Hospitality To love a stranger It need not be much For one who has little Will appreciate it
I cannot divide My heart Into four pieces Equally Geometrically
I’m watching a woman in a bikini In great shape with a swollen bell… Play with her puppy named Gatsby A Hispanic family comes The little girl dips her feet in
Turkey and dressing Loud and overwhelming Opinions and food fly Green bean casserole Too much laughter
Why can’t I choose to be somewhere in the middle? Surrounded by extremes Measure everything With a grain of salt
Well-intentioned stranger Eyeing me limp through HEB Why would you ask If I stepped on a nail? How do you know
My heart breaks A little each day For problems I can’t solve For things I can’t change All I can do is pray
Antisocial tendencies Amplified by sickness I can people watch Yet I can’t people talk I am lonely
If food is poetry The flavors The smells Singing in harmony Is poetry food?
¿Te duele Cuándo piques tu dedo? No Lo hago por pura diversión Lo que duele
¿Te fue mal el día? Me va mal también a mi Dos vidas entretejidas Irrevocablemente Te cargo a ti encima
My objective is selfish Not to share or be heard To get it out and move on No one seems to hear my pain No one seems to feel my pain
Yo te amo Tres palabras Que solucionen todo Para la mujer Tan complicada
