7. Come Over For An Afternoon
“To answer your question, my friend...
“To answer your question, my friend...
Was the reference to
(I
am trying to think;
To
answer your question)
Well met
[Is the 2697 miles making you think?]
‘He used to come, Into the gallery, he used to come, where I worked, where I talked.’
Age before Caesar
Caesar before youth
Sparks to the ice
Flames to the wet
Auburn, is this girl
you see
Auburn, is this girl
Of whom burns barns for the old man
Auburn giggles like a victim of the jokes
While she is in the act of her own personal
her own embossed
moment
‘Then, like a mongrel on a bend, I asked him to speak of it off.’
Always did she ever
Believe in the crass and craving
Always did she ever
Set fire to the fuse
Like a gasoline tank about to vibrate
on a slightly higher frequency
She sets fire to not only my barn
‘He always spoke in half truth in order to not hurt my feelings.’
Well met
[Well there is a decimal attached]
Myself, I feel like
i have
A cloud hanging over me
Spent time
in the gloom enshrouded overhang
of a local library
Counting the number of raindrops that don’t
Anoint your crown
Well met
[But I figured I would round it off to the nearest whole number]
Religion (he is deeply religious)
to one of the shop girls,
(and so she was)
Is an excuse to be free
free from the very thoughts that tell you which way is up
and why you know the only way up is out
Well met
[I thought it accentuated the geography barrier]
Surprised,
Disappointed,
And a little unnerved
Myself, I feel like
i have
A cloud hanging over me
Auburn is one of those friends
that get excitable about choices made
Auburn is one of those friends
that are acting controllers of the here and now
Auburn is one of those friends
That storm in gales and leave the world in a deep depression
…He conceded. I am almost positive, though I am not sure.
Why that would hurt my feelings?
-it's just something he does.”
-it's just something he does.”
