you come at me
from all sides
the ones on the cusp
of transforming into my next
escapade. we drank with strangers
and talked about all that was broken
as if to find some truth under
the lies we sold, but nothing is
sacred. it seems that meeting
lovers at discreet places is a
thing of the past. let everyone see
what a joke facades are;
meet in the middle of Centropolis
and pretend you see no one.
what the fuck is wrong with
sliding under radars, going off
the grid? nothing for the ones
who read at three am instead
of sleep, nothing for the ones
who make love
instead of waking up.
dreaming is a thing of the past
like poems
that change with the weather
like poets
who think they are better
because academia dictates
my degree is substantial
to teach everything I don’t
want to. poetry is in
constant debate, and
yet you and I
can’t be friends.
but i’m so grateful
you took me in
and showed me
your sunset
and sunrise.

You are welcome, Poetess! Your work demands comments! Though sometimes I’ll admit I don’t I can find words sufficient to express what I feel about them. One always worries about saying something is “ok” when it is “wonderous” 🙂
Love that! X
