  • 1893

    It was just a fluke that I happened to see

    The ghost of a girl in 1893

    I didn't think much of her, tried to ignore

    But then she came 'round in 1894

    A spirit was not something that I had wanted

  • Papercuts

    Did you know that, when you wrote me, I was made of papercuts

    That I was ink and glue and wax but mostly, I was papercuts

    Did you know that, when you read me, I am made of memories

  • Whitesteeple

    The church had seen horrors beyond its wildest comprehension. It had seen plague, townspeople blistering at the mouth, boils erupting over their palms.
  • The Picket Line

    I was born on the picket line
    Banner in one fist, rattle in the other
    My body wasn't, of course
    But my spirit
    She came out kicking and crying and singing
    I was born on the picket line
  • I Dreamt It

    The truth is
    I dreamt of those ships
    Long before the brig was barred
    The wheel was spun
    The sails were hoisted
    I dreamt of that ship, pine and cotton dancing across my tongue
    I do not mourn the sailors

    Trying to get over writer's block

    I cannot write
    That is called a blockage
    It's also hard to speak right now and 
    That is called a talkage
    I wished upon a star last night
    That's what I'd call hope
    And then watched it burst into flame

    Understanding

    You will not understand me
    So don't begin to try
    I am if the moon was square
    And fish swam in the sky

    Don't try to understand me
    Please do not raise my heart
    It will make it that much harder when
    It has to break apart
