Fragmented Refrain
I dreamt once that I danced with you.
Fox trot,
White dress,
Dim lit room.
I looked more like my grandmother than myself
But you just looked a better version of you.
No needle marks in sight.
You told me you liked us this way,
No fighting,
Everything clear, reality perfectly defined.
No confusion, nothing bad,
Just us, a gramophone, love,
And just when I
don't
need it most,
An alarm clock to wake me up.
And the sound is no dancing tune. It is
As harsh and loud
And crass
As the you who stirs beside me,
As unromantic as a broken record.
