Poems
Apr 2011
children as substitutes
performing advances
beneath my eyelids,
hoping you appear
when they open.
descriptions:
nervous butterflies
hiding in the pit
of a beautiful girl,
she's tired,
stayed up past midnight,
and she can't
go back to sleep.
"Good night"
(not until tomorrow morning)
whispers: "good morning" "good morning" "good morning"
time for toast, and showers, and directions home.
CRASHES, in the kitchen: the freeway.
because it's our house and we can do what we want to:
1. 2. 3. cups of coffee.
I write what I want to say to you:
feels boring.
feels exciting.
feels
familiar.
Conversation boiling down to,
you,
(disappearing),
and
me
(passing out to loud noise
and bright lights).
