My baby’s got Curly red hair Shimmering eyes Freckles to spare Likes to play games
I write You read I talk You listen I huff
I guess I write poetry I just vomit my soul onto paper I don’t know what else to call it but, poetry
I stretch your being You respond with shocked intrigue Sparks dance in-between
I’m such an ass You don’t even know Devoid of class No love to bestow I plant despair
The Earth is my Mother The Heavens my Dad I love my Father But I’m a Momma’s boy at heart
I’m just looking for An open invitation To bathe you in love
Relinquish control Let the Universe have space To exceed expectations
I embrace your wild side And all that it entails Presence, passion, overkill And dirt beneath my nails
I like to watch... an ant traverse a grass forest a flower unfurl in moonlight a muskrat reap trifolium a leaf quiver in mid-day breeze
I hope you have her desire for ord… With a bit of mine to vex And my penchant to look ever inwar… Tempered with hers to project I hope you have my cool demeanor
My soul knew that I can’t accept A fucked up view or perspective So threw me to the darkest pit To let my love be beacon lit
Open your heart to love So you might be able To love your open heart
I can blend seamlessly Because I find parts of me In ev’ryone I see
There’s a certain kind of type That always does it right Elicits smiles and tears In the space between your ears The only sort of religion
