foUR enjoyment

the following are four lines for you forever long you need them, which includes when you forget.

*

close but not closed

you bring me into your open arms

where you once relaxed

then tightened to let go

*

to patch a hole

first

you have to

poke the needle

*

spread my legs

like a tripod

opening for a panoramic shot

showing the world

*

to defend yourself

sometimes you have to kill

someone who did not

defend themselves very well

*

how wonderful it is

to feel very much alive

while still getting the blessings

of heaven

*

i am going

to go

but not before

i get go going

*

lips taste like love

which doesn’t make sense

but at least

i am numb no more
