Something’s Gotta Be Off To Be On

Tiny things. 
Big things. 

With.
Without.

I don’t doubt
God invented the Devil,
Just as love invented hate,
Not vice versa.

Tantalus in a locked cellarette 
with contents visible but not obtainable.

Broken backs
Because of carrying creativity.
Being poor 
Because of rich dreams.

I ain’t buying it.
Good, because I ain’t selling it:
My soul.

Tuesday poetry on a Monday.
October love in March. 

A cataclysmic catechism.
An earthquake during a hurricane.

Question the answers.

Without bad,
There can be no good. 

The privation theory,
The inevitable dualism of existence;
Not knowing what one feels like 
Without appreciating the other. 

This means no one is ever completely wrong.

I only miss you
Because I had you. 
 and bliss is ignorance.
