Vessel for your want //
I remain indifferent //
Mayhap paralyzed //
Stringing the soup cans //
Stretching them out the distance //
Do you hear me now? //
Your ornery grin //
0ur thinking that is mirrored //
Is a sparkly gift //
Miss Contrary likes //
And dislikes our differences //
Just depends on my mood //
Paper and pencil //
Not sapphires, rubies or pearls //
Are my valuables //
When you're missing faith //
Is it under the mattress? //
In a cookie jar? //
For someone so //
conventional, so Midwest //
I surprise myself. //
I've been many places //
My foray in loving you? //
The most exotic //
Religion surrounds //
Like a mummy wrapped in sheets //
Must be dead to dig. //
Feel like the turtle //
Being passed in the race. Puzzled. //
When did I enter? //
Your touch is healing //
Hands, arms, lips- even when we //
Aren't playing doctor //
Wasn't looking up //
Mistake. The anvil of you //
Crashed into my head //
Obvious is not //
When your head is in the clouds //
Must be my shelter //
You do not mind well. //
Remember? I told you then //
You weren't to love me. //
