I dreamed we worked in the department store, together in 1987
In the middle of an aisle, we were dueling swords
For the title of immaculate retail lord
From the back of house to the blood on the floor
My left ear was up against your lips as you
Pinned me back into a rack of padded shoulders
Tou whispered as the lights went out
“Be free forever baby, you’re shift is over”
If there was еver such a feckless thing as night in thе afternoon
Still I might stretch out the saltwater taffied ends of every hour with you
I’m in another fit of laughter
The speed at which the morning after
Slips into the consciousness of the night, seasonally shifting the limbs of our lives into action
The colors of the world that go together best are the deep evergreens and the reds of the robin’s breast
My teacher is a common creature that’s never even spoken or heard a word of English
Breakfast is an edible calling card that serves to bridge our dimensions
My phone is out in the yard and I’m feeling younger from paying attention
If there was ever such a feckless thing as night in the afternoon
Still I might stretch out the saltwater taffied ends of every hour with you
I’m in another fit of laughter
The speed at which the morning after
Slips into the consciousness of the night, seasonally shifting the limbs of our lives into action
