one more time with feeling
sticks in the air
though moments are fleeting
no time for chit-chat
i can't believe it
has this gone long enough?
can you wait,
aren't you excited?
static reflections
ecstatic breaths
on and on.
he's licking amaretto
glass to the ceiling
trying for all the drops
still left twinkling at the bottom
droplets of gold
of cocaine or opium-
it takes a toll
but you know i know
anyone's lucky
if they make it to thirty
i know
i'd hate to stay
but i love company
locusts and vultures
are gorgeous in colour
i know
