will you be mine
the days are getting shorter
each time
i look at my watch
which doesn’t work
as well as it did
when it did
when i was less long
like a maple tree
being born from a single shoot
that fell off
quite unfortunate
during a storm
railing like me
when i’m full
the total tree
shaking in the wind
leaves noting a tune
that can be mistaken
for feet
or an animal following
those feet for a meal
but are just me
when i know when
and when i see you
knowing i knew nothing
until then
*
the best
is not yet imagined
so be better
and imagine yet
the best of all
