    Even In My Dreams

    Danielle, I heard you call for me from behind me. I reached back my hand. I felt your hand grasp mine. Even if it was (or is) a just a dream, I hold on to it. I love you.

    Treasure on A Deserted Island

    While visiting the dentist today I found this picture you colored at the dentist.

    I found something worth more than any gold or silver, I found a piece of you.

    As I was working on today’s annual Transgender Day of Remembrance I was fretting about the candles, the slides, the names, the equipment,  all the things that go into making a day like this happen. I was relaying …

    On The Bus You Can Just Call Me Pat

    All those years of watching SNL just paid off.

    Magnetic Resonance of You

    I know your voice has changed but I still have a tape of you talking into the recorder. It’s really the only tangable thing I have to tell me that you ever existed.

    I love you my darling …
