My Blue Dress-shirt
"Do you two know each other? Well, then get to know each other."
I, with my skin around the neck, your hands on my blue dress-shirt.
Yes, it's no regular dress-shirt; it's really a v-neck t-shirt.
But, girl, you don't actually have hands either.
In the normal sense, that is, you do-- of course. But not around me, or my dress-shirt
or v-neck t-shirt.
They are on your arms, by your sides and, without love, you carry them through the desert each day.
And your feet ply my shoulders-- because I am sand beneath clouds.
I am sand beneath hate, under t-shirts and under blue dress-shirts which are actually v-neck t-shirts.
I am sand, with your hands on my surface and my skin around the neck.
And sand does not find itself in the desert-- it just is.
Two shards of the same stone, eternally separated, though resting on each other.
