Walking past businesses with their doors wide open letting the spring air permeate the room and vanquish the lingering taste of winter I’ll have what I always have - only make it iced an ice cream cone is melting in the gutter and I can almost hear the five year old girl crying for another all of the colors of this worldly palette now so vibrant take the blinders off of my eyes and let my heart dance to rythym of far off shores I’m smiling because the birds stopped shrieking and started singing I write the same five or six poems over and over and over again but I dress them up in different costumes I’ve always loved acting the noble fool of endearment I have to move my car in 40 to avoid the ticket but I might just see how far that ***** little hatchback can take me to avoid my roots going so deep they dry up listen to love listen to rage listen to petulant cries for warped justice listen to lust and listen to depressed realizations listen to all of the ******* we can come up with we love to talk but not to listen blah blah blah shut up it’s sunny outside so take of all of your clothes and dance in your nakedness in the middle of midday broad street unlock all the cages let the light in it’s a great day for living so quit your death march
