"unsurrounded" poems
#5: warm welcome, a kind beginning begun _______________________________________ it is a bit of a shock, the world of words more often swallows & surrounds you up  between walls of impenetrable silence you actually read me, heard me, even fed me!  they taught me/us to diagram our sentences into its component parts, like a car going to an auto body shop, *** my car needed a muffler but instead I was given a new horn, and I’m in an empty Walmart parking lot, unsurrounded, and leaning on the horn, making a fireworks celebration of one sound, and your warm welcome,  kind welcome, to a visitor to this new planet, astonishes & astounds, for it seems we speak the sane/same language, how can this be??? Is smiling a word on this planet?

love you for all that you are 5 rooms 2 bodies blooming in space cupcake filth on your kitchen counter on my ***** bone i walked my way across and away from you and you charted each of my paths love mark seeker i feel your honey gaze watching me and in my eyes are pools of your deodorant and your cologne remember when you thought we could run away from each other? remember when i thought the same? i ran into your arms for comfort from the cold spruce trees surrounding us unsurrounded i dove into your arms you are my only memory a breeze that rides slow and heavy i whispered i love you like skin under heavy sheets i love you like getting soaked in the rain we got so wet crashes of lighting laughter i can’t tell the difference because my world still shakes either way when you call me at 3 in the morning your tears dribble onto my pillow is it cold over there? yes the sun here is burning my skin i feel so far but my pillow is still wet remember when i rolled glitter onto your thighs and we woke up in a galaxy i wonder how much i swallowed that night i remember distinctly how we fell in love it was my eyes closed and climbing to the stars you pulled me when i tripped i picked you up and twirled you i picked you i pick you we are incoherent i still don’t understand but my blue lips drowned in your pillow calls finally touched your red fast ones hot in the summer just that little moment that tiny moment my HEART my HEART my HEART BOOM BOOM BOOM in my ears MY HEART BOOMBOOMBOOMBOOMBOOM i put your hand to my chest your smile mimicked my heart so we sat there for three hours timing ourselves with one another i whispered i love you you put me in your mouth
