You Can Find Me

You Can Find Me

all the commentary’s unnecessary

when i walk with those not at rest;

so i sit at the cemetery

when i need to clear my head.

they say death is hereditary,

so i don’t fear my final breath.

there’s peace in being secretary

for the thoughts left by the dead.

you can find me laying by mounds

beside the freshly dug up dirt.

i’ll be listening to the sounds—

witnessing silence go unstirred.

i stare longingly up at the clouds

wondering why i’m still here on Earth.

this’ the place to bury all my doubts

to pack down all my fear and hurt.

Crush It.
by kalika

i hold violence in my hands so i can crush it.
like citrus in a damn Sunkist, 
i love it.
rinds of benevolence just can’t cut it.
can’t quit this; 
can’t rise above it,
cause the juice is worth the squeeze.
poisoned orange intravenously,
fruit of the poisonous tree;
peel back what’s inevitably 
flowing cold inside of me.
my anger chills righteously— 
hellish from the seventh to ninth zone.
so-da freeze’s frigid to the depths 
of my spinal bones 
close to my heart; 
can i kill the bicarbonate spark?
so-di-um salt tears can’t boil over 
as acid starts to depart, 
leaving a mark. 
like angry chem-trails grieving the sky;
sickening all that can’t bear to say goodbye.
pop another top, squash it with a sigh.
addicted to the misery, to the high—
to sugary sweet trickery,
and i don’t know why.
