I miss you two so much it fucking burns my insides up and pushes on my chest like a weight I couldn’t invent. There is not a day I don’t think of you both. I know you’re back here, but dammit you’re too far away. (at Helena, Montana)

Chasers of the light,
we’ve called ourselves
from the beginning,
built a life around this.
Caught some,
from time to time,
borrowed moments to save,
memories frozen in
fading glow, in early morning
fog and late night stardust.
Chasers of the light,
and I stayed a half step
behind you. Maybe it was
light you were chasing,
eyes on the horizon,
watching it shift and fade,
alive and migratory,
but it was on you
my eyes were
locked.
All this time, I’ve
been chasing light,
all this time
I’ve been chasing
you.
-Tyler Knott Gregson-

of kindness and compassion,

You can take every other season, just leave me Autumn. I wait all year for this sliver of perfection.

PLEASE READ THIS ONE!
Maybe we’re too proud of ourselves,
lost in this delusion of grandeur, can’t see
past our own noses, maybe we believe too hard
in our own myths.
Right now, mothers and fathers
are buying bulletproof backpacks
to fill with binders and magic markers, still
scented like simpler times are even a remote
possibility. Keep telling ourselves
we are the greatest country on earth.
Active shooter drills and boredom
trickles across the faces of children
hiding under desks, behind the
barricades they build against doors,
against windows to the hallways.
The boy who cried wolf, over and again,
until one day the wolf actually comes,
bullets biting like teeth, and crying
takes on a new sound. Keep telling ourselves
we are the greatest country on earth.
Martin Luther King Jr. would be 90 this birthday,
if pride and hatred and blind ignorance
didn’t steal him away. What would he think
of where we are? The water fountains
lost their labels, but the divide continues,
flames from burning crosses have moved
from front yards to the stunted hearts of the
hateful, but still they burn. Keep telling ourselves
we are the greatest country on earth.
-Tyler Knott Gregson-
“Needing and wanting,
it’s always been both with you,
but more the latter.”

Typewriter Series #2694 by Tyler Knott Gregson
Some transformation took place,
the letter lost its gravity
and floated upwards,
just one though, just the first.
M drifted like wind caught
and found its way upside down,
before normalcy took over
and returned it to earth,
landed on its back,
kicked its legs skyward,
a beetle rolled over,
but this one loved the look
of the sky.
We, from a Me, still don’t know
how it happened,
not sure why gravity took
a siesta, called in sick
for a moment or two,
but here We are.
-Tyler Knott Gregson-
“An aching inside,
won’t you slide up and soothe it.
I need your healing.”

Oh to freeze a moment, to capture the frenzy of an emotion, steal it and then give it back to those you stole it from. Oh to show someone how they truly are, the version we see, but they so seldom do. What a thing.

Typewriter Series #2693 by Tyler Knott Gregson
Sometimes it’s just so much
and my mind soaks it
like a sponge, carries twice
its weight and leaks the excess
back into me.
Sometimes I cannot hold it all,
not enough arms or fingers
and sometimes there are
too many plates to keep spinning.
Sometimes I am worn out and tired
and numb from the constant
hum of noise in my mind.
Sometimes I just want a little
insulation from the buzz
of it, the constant hive song
that seems to fill every
moment.
-Tyler Knott Gregson-
