These sunny days
Oh, how they beat me down
Let's not go back
To the days
That made us tired and old

Come on let's run
Let's run right through the grass
And sing loud songs
And fall asleep
In each others arms

In these summer beds

You want to see him
Now? The receptionist
Asked. Yes, this minute,
You replied. What’s it

About? None of your
Concern. I think I need
To know before I can
Interrupt him. You need

To know jackshit. There
Was a staring of eyes.
Hesitation. A looking
Down at the phone, a

Scratching of forehead
Dislodging flakes of dry
Skin. Is it that important?
Maybe you could give

Me some idea what you
Need to see him about?
***, you mutter. ***?
Yes, he came around

To my place last night
And after a real good
Session lasting until
The small hours he up

And left without so
Much as a goodbye kiss
Or whispered word. That
Right? Yes, you said. I’ll

Get him right away, I
Wanted to know where
The heck my husband
Was last night and now

I know. Are you sure
Want to see him now?

Time is like a leap of faith
something i have never known before
Time is a clock on my door
          times that i have cherish mean more
          to me, than ever before
          times that came and went
          like a sea lapping on a shore
          now to me mean more
          but it is just time you see

WAS and WAS     NO MORE.

At what height is appropriate
To strain, sift
I must be doing this wrong

You are beautiful
But you are
For show

I dreamt of temptation
Terrorism
A storm

You are
Cruel

I dreamt so vivid
When I woke up you weren't there
I was still
