a woman with black skin holds my inner self
a girl with unforgiven eyes thinks my selfish thoughts
a mom with stupid logic tells me I am dumb
and a book with scary words says that I have come
if bleeding is believing
three tiny words electrify us together
and can shadow the world like a plague
sunglasses can frame a man who wants to cry
and can hold a boy that sould have died
I knew a boy and all I could see
was the
sad
lonely man
staring at the ground
whispering in the air all the things he never said
or never meant
hoping that somehow the words would reach the sky like
Miles Davis's Seven Steps to Heaven
thinking for a moment that the balloons reached somewhere other than Kentucky
why is it easy to say it landed there when you want it to reach the suite
the all
I like my hands sometimes
their curves
the palm
but then I remember that I didn't know the flower was poisonous at all.
such a silly fait lies inside
I can't even read this
all this rhyming burns my eyes
