Mar 2014
Sun shining in 14 different ways.
Casting shadows in reptiles heads.
Seen combed through glass, yellow.
Today she said “The clouds don’t smile”.

And tomorrow we saw today.
Standing on Arizona canyons.
Green rivers flow in horseshoes.
We always say ‘love’ backwards.

I can see town from here.
The horizon cuts deep.
You hug me back.
We lie down and make believe.

Owls twisting between trees.
Under my teeth and up my sleeve.
The Earth glues to my sleeping tears.
Once forever, always ever you’re near.

Whenever the campfire throws squares.
The sky slithers like the night-time does.
Wisping through our tent towards me.
I’ve been all alone with us in my dreams.

I can see town from here.
The horizon cuts deep.
You hug me back.
We lie down and make believe.
Make believe.
Make believe.
