He rides in loudly, and all at once
Like a hurricane healed to summer air
I have never been more grateful for the violence
I’m barely awake,
I haven’t yet popped my arms and legs back into place
But when coming from his mouth,
I am made of marble,
I was never truly bent nor asleep
I will never have anything better to do
Than watch as you lock into your armor
Cradling, for the needy day,
That which you have given to only me
