Wake up 
to threeeeeeeeee. //. 
That’s so. 
That so? 

That’s still. 


better pull the hair from the mouth
vacuum the rug like that old poet
looking for his lover in 
dirt and dust
that’s what it should be 
better not to end up stuck
I tell the mailman
don’t write it off to its face. 

Whhhhhhhhhhile you’ve been away
I’ve gotten tough. 
three eyes and life has been rough
but my legs won’t stick together and
I don’t disappear forever
only when the moon
asks if I feel what she’s feeling. 


Just like seeing it for the first time. 
Just like seeing it for the first time. 
I guess. 

I’m telling the rocks how much better you are
when you insult me
but I might break up a marriage
and feign understanding 
just to feel understanding
for the first time. I guess. 
Better get it together for Heather
a harbor mouse you keep in your house.

————–
for the first time. I guess. 
for the first time. I guess. 
–

as long as you spit on the floor when you leave
I’ll know you’ll be back tomorrow. I guess. I guess.
