ate a banana
He closed the
patio door behind him
and spoke to
the cranes on
his
wall
I took
the yellow peel
and dropped it
to float down the stream
and sent my own life after it
Epheral is my lover
when i look out the car windows
he touches my hair
i can't anticipate his fingers
so each brush newly
reminds me
of his
presence
i feel him loking at me
with his mouth open
i won't move
because
to see him
will reveal
his humanity
to me
i feel above the earth at the moment
Epheral took me on a road trip
we tagged government buildings
before
praying to eachother by the river
head to head
he prayed to me and
asked me
to save
the peel this
time
this one is from ideas i had driving along the river at dusk. i was sad, but then i cheered up a little when i resolved this story.
