Where I live
Where I work
How I speak
Free time perks
How much time
On my hands
How I went
Travelling lands
Who my friends
Like to be
What I drink
Films I see
How I look
What I wear
Whether lippie
Or some flares
Punch drunk
Over jab
Wiping tables
Keeping tabs
All I want
Is to be
In love
With you
To me, I'll take it
You keep me
On the straight
And narrow
You hold me
On the bends
Your smile and feet
Go fore me always
All the ways to
Land's end
In silent hours
There is room
For a whisper
Without being
Chided for it
Just saying
What's new?
How you doing?
Thinking of you
Lately
When morning
Shroud of light
Dawns on me
Thoughts compete
With voices
People haze
Trip hop beat
Low voice
Narrator
Never leaves
Like one note
Held on for
Entire sonata
Al fine
A home brew
Thinking through
How best to
Keep it warm
Winter nights
By the fire
Dreaming
Taste of future
Bitter sweet
Taking time
No rush
Ideas ferment
Sugar pills
Slow fizz
Bottle you
Until ready
To taste
No haste
Intoxicating
Steady me
Every morning leaving
On time to the skip
Of my feet
Pulling away cartoon TV
Standing six feet away
Millenia in social decree
Lemon sherbet bomb
Milk shakes
Redskins
Sending my mind in a spin
Looking through me
Invisible
Grimace and grin
Leaving words behind
In the dust
Words never heard before
Something about
Let's be friends
Bubble O Bill
Gaytime
Icy pole
Chasing up and down
Stares worlds unknown
Giggle till your sides
Hurt eyes leaving
Tummy aches
Green chip fries
Tears down cheeks
She makes me laugh
No matter what she says
Somehow if my cool I keep
Sticking around
Can't shake me
Holding my breath while
The big girls
Rate me
Whether awake or asleep
A parallel reality
Woven from memory
Laced with dreams
Evades my spaces
Empty rooms
With music
On repeat
Behind closed eyes
Her face reminds me
Promises only keep
When stored safely
Entertaining
All kinds of things
Foreseeable future
Down by the sea
Takes my willing heart
On much needed holiday
While planting seeds
To grow all around me
To look upon her
Middle of the street
Dancing feet in flip flops
Cotton slung over shoulder
Carrying the weight
Of next week's movies
Breakfast treat
Colours and lines dance
In front of eyes
Stallholders parade
Eyes watching me
Rainbow carrots
Pink lemonade
Waiting next Saturday
For one more take
Twist of tongue
Pull of cheek
Humankind kindred
Lay eyes on
Every hour
Another week
In case of
Isolation
Raise a glass
To me
Ethical nature
To draw one out
Protect from predators
When they hide
On the inside
Under rocks
Not out open
How easy to mistake
To mimic a threat
For safety
But scare away
Own mate
Funny how I know
When I decide to
Stop chasing
With words
That'll be the day
You turn around
In the heavy silence
Between us
Where only smiles
Are found
Tell her that you love her
If not with words
Any other thing
Without a doubt
Most important
Need to know
Life or death
By an inch
Holding one
Away from cliff
Sudden drop away
To vast ocean
Of loneliness
Tell her simply
For vast open sky
Meets horizon
High and deep
Where love consumes
Our solitude
We float away
To worlds unknown
Forever
All done through the night
Holding on to the next
Wondering aimlessly
Hoping for return
Falling softly
Blossoms surround
Lift my face
Above them all
How to prevent
Idea of you
Growing so tall
Looking into you
Count the stars of heaven
