Fair Weather
Rita G Jul 2013
Fair-weather front seat
Lookin' at the moonbeams
Solid, sympathizing
The sun on the horizon
Sippin' foreign coffee
Listening to redwood heartbeats
Smoking cigarettes in a black dress
At 430 am, nonetheless.

430 am ocean breeze
Quiet enough to hear a stop sign sneeze
Counting all the bird calls
Staring at the fog walls
Making entities out of mist and light
And thinking about where to crash tonight
Or where to drink-

How arousing is pink?
Pink, plush lips on a long skinny straw
It's amazing how I get anything done at all,
Always thinking about ***,
Always thinking about ****.
He asked for a smile,
I said, "Whatever you need."

Got some stories I don't care to tell
Got a family I don't know so well
So, which do you trust?
Your love or your lust?
Have no resistance at all
And get kicked around like a rag doll.

My eyes get withdrawals
When I ain't near the stars
My ears and nose start to bleed
When I ain't near the sea
Bi-ped amphibean
Transplant Caribbean
Sittin' here wrongin' wishin
I was belongin'

Bright Eyed Baby
Rita G Jul 2013
Bright eyed baby
Make me manic
Take me higher!
Dilated pupils
Stuck in webs of
spun desire...
I want to know you in ways
Only a doctor should know
Above-within-between-around-below
I want to go
To a place where only bodies can speak
Hip to hip
Heart to heart
Chest to chest
And cheek
My cheek!
How lucky am I,
To be looking into those bright eyes?

Proclamation
Rita G Jul 2013
I'm sweeter on you than sweet tea in the summertime
I wanna tell anybody who will listen that you're mine mine mine
I'll climb
To the tippy top of the highest mountain peak
and proclaim my love for you
Baby I'm so deep
Deep Deeper than the ocean blue
No shallow love will ever do
No more, No more I just don't have the time
Convict me of loving you
Convict me of this crime.
Guilty as charged, I'll do as you please
See this isn't just about the ***
You're everything I need.
Though I'm somewhat neurotic
Mama didn't raise no dummy
So when I'm smiling, walking down the street
And everyone looks at me funny, I'll tell them
"Somebody loves me
And I'm drunk as hell off their love honey
And if the sun proclaimed tonight
'Never again will I warm the Earth with my light'
I'll be warmed by the light of their loving me."

— The End —
