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
