defragment your performance
and collect the past
like marbles
rolling
in the backseat
of a mini-van.
your hands becoming
chaos as we grasped
at straws and questioned
nothing but
our silent breathing
and the stars we left
behind a crease in
the old bench seat
where I learned
your name.
like marbles in the mini-van
our chaos will roll on.
