| found you ast 8th St. |
fainting at 8th Street
how I wish that you would kiss me
scratching at my chest
like it would go away
pushing over pillows
like feathered rubble
from flying skyscrapers
hiding behind windows
of offices and cars
watching the neighbors
famous decision
to turn away
and let a dream remain a dream
never met never parted
is the best way to be
birthday present
never opened
always retains
saccharine innocence
sun-drenched may
snowy holiday
ever-shining
always waiting to be opened
foggy reflection
of fingerprints on glass
scratching at the mirror
like it would go away
found you at eighth street,
that present never opened,
kisses never spoiled
by touching shameful lips.
I found you at eighth street
the promise never broken
kisses never spoiled
by touching shameful lips
broken bike wheel spinning in the yard
is a monument to this tryst.
my fouled-up plans;
I'll never see you again.
as if I ever did.
foggy reflection
of fingerprints on glass,
scratching at the window
like it would go away.
foggy reflection
of fingerprints on glass
scratching at the mirror
like it would go away
birthday present
never opened
always retains
Saccharine innocence
Sun-drenched may
Snowy holiday
Always shining
Ever waiting to be opened
sun-drenched may
snowy holiday
ever-shining
always waiting to be opened
