New word: "Hilariest"
Meaning: Most hilarious, funniest.
"That was the hilariest thing I've seen all year!"

You grew up,
got skinny and pale
and moved to the city where dreams never fail

We took a bottle and a lantern to town
but when the morning rolled
i took my cold hands and lifted
you from the ground

yea, we were lovers
we were sad excuses for lovers
because the covers
only cover
one or the other

three years later we moved
still cold from my bones to shoes
and i, reluctantly, let you chose
one or the other
you chose the other

i cant help but remember you
there
pale white skin
and light brown hair,
brighter from the lantern
and lighter with dye
with a look in your eye
and a shake in your palm

If i could make it work i would

I walked in on the final set of the night
they were on stage, singing
and i was feeling alright
i was feeling like a dream had passed
and i awoke
tired and happy and alone

she was at home
curled in pillows and slumber

with each step i took
and each phone call i made
my cynical mind set me straight
and awake

finally
i caught a glimpse
through light
and glow
and night
blur and soft focus
grease
and lens and rain
and the pain in my heart
kept it beating
for the sake of
well
i have no idea

maybe kayaks in summer
maybe autumn drives
maybe sand and water and laughter

maybe toes and wine and kiss
maybe this

maybe heart
and ache
and beat
maybe hands and feet

maybe ice cold kiss
maybe longing
lawn mowers and pine

maybe flowers
hot showers
and the hours that fly like seconds
maybe the minutes that pass like days
maybe haze, fog, mist
maybe 32 year old mistress

maybe lust
held back by dust
maybe sex
held back by cheques

maybe dogs
and cats
and outside bats
flying down the chimney

maybe talks that open souls
maybe newborn babies
maybe long walks in the woods
maybe goods

maybe it was for nothing at all
maybe i should fall,
face down
flat to the pavements breast
and take rest
arrest
to the chest.

i always loved smiles
i always loved leaves
swinging in the trees
and branches hanging low
weighted with snow

well put together
to hide from the weather

The summer felt like wind in my hair
a warm breeze that was always there
the summer felt like branches on the trees
swinging
as you brought me to my knees singing

i don't know what you taught me that day
i'm not sure what i learned
more than
falling deeper into earth
and grass
and blanket smooth

you used me
and i accepted the advance
id return the favor
if only i'd had the chance
if only i was asked to dance

but the moment passed
the moment, over
the hangover
over

with greens and blues
and shoes
i paid my dues
and kept the clues
but, i'm sure
love..... comes in ones and twos
