comets fall
rain beats
the hardest things
to do, to say
don't get any easier
+
beat poets dance
in the Fire Station cafe
a missing snow leopard
two white rabbit, dark ales
people collapse
on the pavements
+
for a moment
I thought
I belonged
sirens fire like bullets
+
did you find
the missing comma
I forgot
whatever
I was writing about
fell from present tense
to past
and back
to present, again
+
tear out the pages
burn your bible
blow me another kiss
I told you:
it doesn't get any easier
Dear Kristen, I'm really enjoying these Summer Nights poems! Christmas contextualised. Love don't come easy. On the other hand, the world is a pretty dark place without it. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks dear Rob:) Yes, Christmas Contextualised would be a good title for a series of poems.
ReplyDeleteand dark within it, terrific!
