Homesickness.
You’ll find me in the library.
April 24th 2012
Set your sights straight now
Don’t forget pain
Drink ‘til tomorrow becomes yesterday
Think of the shorelines you have yet to see
Men who will hold you with eyes you believe
In 2005 I was madly in lust with this man; as only a wide-eyed 20 year old can be. Cut to 4 minutes in.
Love her.
Kiss me with rain on your eyelashes,
come on, let us sway together,
under the trees, and to hell with thunder.
if you’ve been having a bad day
here’s a hedgehog with a strawberry on its head
even if you haven’t been having a bad day
here’s something to make your day better

if the lights are on or off, if we’re in the kitchen
or the bedroom, half-naked or fully disrobed at six
or seven when we should be thinking about other things
and I really don’t care for this position or that particular
slant of events like the time we did it outside and
I really don’t care for a hotel bed in another country
where we memorized exotic smells before and after
we’d eaten downstairs and you said you’d like to talk
about the suppleness of scent, how it curves like hips
traced by fingertips before you fall asleep and dreams
curl under your lids the way a woman’s lipstick
is another shade when it’s two in the morning and
you’re drinking from her lips and I really don’t care
if it takes fifteen minutes or thirty days, if the sheets
are cotton or silk or semen stained and dripping
wet as long as I see dilated eyes speaking our sex
when you tell me there is nothing left.
