Red Basin
by J. Hyde T.
I remember the nights
when you scrubbed my back
telling me to grow up to
understand gratefulness
needs to be paid back with sincerity
That if I kept my head down
and paced along
I can brace success
with comfort you've never had
Your embrace left me affection
As you wiped my face
I thought you were my all
and to dive was to sink
Now I can't recall why
hot showers
poured like ladles of soup
Or why your breath bothered me
Or why your mutters always crept
close to my neck
pricing air
Repeating that you've paid
to pave where I stood
and to float was all I needed to do
That my repentance
was to stop keeping my head up
when I'm looking at you.
Melting Closet
by J. Hyde T.
You're looking at me through those colored lenses
more tired than agitated of what I've become
62
My words bleed of gasoline
too demure to greet your ears
