Poems
Nov 2013
Slanted Waters
I had a dream
The other night
A small dam broke
Releasing what was held tight
And the water spilled
Out into a square pool
But the water defied gravity
It slanted and broke rules
We all went swimming
In the water that was deep
I noticed you had hit your head
In this state of sleep
So I helped you up
Helped you out
And dried you
And then we took the quickest route
To my home where
I bandaged your head
Then you took me up stairs
And we came to the bed
You bent down to meet my lips
And my lips said welcome return
You sat down on the mattress
And I straddled you till my thighs burned
You laid down and
We continued our muted conversation
That's when I was interrupted
By radio station 98.7
But I awoke
With a grin on my face
And I let out a sigh
As my heart raced
I wish I could return
To that perfect dream state
But I had to brush my teeth and finish algebra
But now tonight cannot wait
