like that time

he dug cigarettes

out of the trash

like that time

I got what I want

you’re stretching

and you don’t know when

you’ll get it

like that time

I forgot enlightenment

like that time

you said you were light

on your feet

like that time

he was married

you’re confused

and you don’t know when

you’ll figure it out

like that time

you smeared ink across your face

like that time

he loved time corroding

like that time

I stood pinching myself

staring at the mirror

you’re angry

and you don’t know when

you’ll release it

like that time

I knew me and covered up

like that time

he watched the shore darken

like that time

you put that photo on the wall

you’re falling

and forgetting how to stand
