Poems
Feb 2010
four days
we are red jacket crew, we are belated petunias.
and we are the shining inside-outs
left over from the cold grass
and the speed signs.
we pried Jesus apart from His plastic casing
we sat up on his China crossβ¦
β¦waitedβ¦
you were still in bed
for once
the hairspray and the black paint from last night
crept up beneath my skin
