Blue Sunday  

Counting cracks in that old house
Like some lost penny, meant to roam
Being us scares you & forces tears
A reindeer without Santa’s sled
Faded
Levis not quite tattered
Looking at the face in the glass
A question too late to ask – shattered –
Shards of terracotta pots in the back yard
We unearth them together – always together –
We also find plastic toy soldiers from dirt wars
Some memories are meant to last, and w/ pleasure.
We usually don’t need a camera to write our past
Zoom in now – I ain’t meant to last –
We’re going on the run
And you’re the one I want to come
The one I love
