Kristen de Kline #202 The third degree

+
when you wake me up, early
your rogue arm captures my torso
the smell of rain, outside
lazy kisses dance down

+
it's in the mid morning
after I've pulverized the coffee beans
with the spice stick
that's when I feel it the most:
swinging through the smoke
your absence
those light bulbs
swaying at the Old Duck

+
put me on the witness stand
fire up your red dictionary
gobble up the alphabet
give me the third degree
how does it taste
was it love
did it hurt

+
go to the end
search for the beginning
