A moment To step back The dinging and ringing Of keep up, step ahead Launch right into it Brings a glimmer Already Of soft clear fresh air.
A glass of red wine Perhaps two Baby left both bottles And all the groceries behind Not to say bye ***** I'm leavin' But to say without even needing to Enjoy my darling, for you And for us.
Busy work Lots of focused busy work This hat I've never worn before Remember the orders of tea Handed one, two, three Sharpies and razor blade cut Specificity, acute instructions No need to snap a picture Lets just do it.
Caught red handed In the midst of December But baby, I don't stray I'm just scared So I'll nestle some eggs Fertilize my own garden Not as a reactionary battle cry Or for the times I feel alone at night But because its just gonna be okay We gonna be okay
What I hope not to be Just as a romanticized emblem Or glorified puppy love But for always Because its us.
