“Need a ceiling to
tap my brains
and bang my head until
I see I’ll be happy
if I try hard enough”
she said
“Think I’ll go away completely,
disappear before
my ten fingers dye to blue”
she swore
“Entwined round this quiet
keepsake of yours I surrender
to my eyelashes
with pocket-sized kisses
you bring out when you need them”
A thousand open windows
late at night,
stretching lazily
see her toetips caressing the wind
Trembling height fright
at her feet
and chimney pots so high,
wishes me a happy new year
but she’s too shy
Wise men are born
with a hole in the chest
Violets are shrinking,
are you one of them?
Have you been running
in circles yet?
Well, either way...
masterplans were made to fail
“Need a ceiling to
tap my brains
and bang my head until
I see I’ll be happy
if I try hard enough”
she said.
She distills memories
thinking ‘bout tomorrow,
with sweetdreams and saltkisses
at last last last she’s sleeping
