Untitled (from "Love Can Damage Your Hue)

just avoid the whole thing…

no more falling into your nothingness,

jarring into this…

pushing off cliffs as if we could fly

together,

only to be reached by the opposition

of gravity and impact…

no more unconscious lemmings following

the lead into blissful “amoricide”…

no inside with(out) no outside (with)in

…not like I sleep with you anyway

not like I dreamed with you, right?

take it back

and I’ll stay on my side of the nocturne…

no more “you” when this cat naps…

but when I awaken,

all bets are off
