Why am I stuck here,                      revolving ’round the thought of you–                                      that serpent inward/hid?
Why am I convincing myself                            to be in love with you                                                when all I feel is a twinge                                                                       a singe                                                                       of nerve                                                            – no butterflies,                                                                 more of a mashing                                                                            a constriction of the                                                                                              ’testines                                                                           as though my heart                                                                                         my apple                                                                                         my core                                                                                were gravity’d                                                                                       to pit of me                                                                                       in search                                                                                       in pull, inward/guide                                                                     &

the dream

the dream   of you in floor of seat,            having said you lost … something             all in show of being level with me                                              as i sit infront of her,                                                    the one you brought                                                                  in hopes to push me off …                                just a little regret/                                               a little action needed to reclaim me…                                                            I am                                                             already Yours, for                                                                You are these eyes’ focus,                                                                            she merely a distraction.

i fought a thousand thoughts before letting these escape/captured a thousand hearts before you found mine to take
broke a million stars down to the spin of gravity/built a million minds to a sense of natural clarity
