after your funeral march

Morphine and anger is a heady mix
and the girl
bar-side answers that Corey can't be found and
she became the heroin and
she's probably dead

so cheers

and the sweet life slide of
good scotch
in the brother's hands

this baptism of death
and laughter
because it's the celebration
you know?

you gotta have the celebration.

Without Interruption

Lover, please,
place your lips
upon this shaved kiss
and tongue Rumi's words
into me
like an inside prayer
only the two of us can share.

Keeley Rusek is terrible at writing bios, because the small talk perspective of most bios irritates her and does not contain the delicious experience of peeling the onion layers back that she thinks leads to truly experiencing another person. Her publishing experience has room for growth. She is seeking inspiration in the journey, although of course she keeps walking regardless.
