Twenty

It’s always the same until it’s not.

You sing, dance, kiss, bloom and zoom

Like flowers in my garden weep then rot.

 

A summary of my life in drought:

Five different threads of hair in bed because

It’s always the same until it’s not.

 

In blue and white her feed locks me nauseous at night

And wide shut eyes cry of inconsequential tripe

Like flowers in my garden weep then rot.

 

We love each other; we like the thought

But I forget why I wanted you to come, because

It’s always the same until it’s not.

 

She has your name that I forgot

And I scream it through the atmosphere

Like flowers in my garden weep then rot.

 

This hand feels as bad as the rest

But the best blanket is hair across my chest.

It’s always the same until it’s not

Like flowers in my garden weep then rot.
