a single metaphor can give birth to love, he said.
but what happens if i fall in love with you, you who used a metaphor.
i think i fell in love with you on a sunday
i thought for sure it would be a thursday.
everybody smiles going downward i've found
it's a perfect way to begin sadness
it's a beautiful way to be your woman tonight.
i'll give you one night then times up.
it ends and i scatter like the does eyes you know deeply.
skittish. but so angry and brave.
