or "and I am"
Prelude
We are small universes. This is
clear when the meta better physics
clang like the tops of garbage cans.
There's gonna be a cold front tonight.
Low pressure as I try to say "hi" to
you. But you look at me like my
antennae are showing and my skin
has gone a putrid green. This change
of weather goes right to my head
and my stomach churns like the
spanish channel novella that plays
whenever you enter a room.
Satellites pick up this drama, beam
it straight into space for Martians
to laugh at. "Oh, those Earthlings",
as they hold tentacles or whatever
those big, scaly, dangling things are.
I feel
Driving up the Sawgrass Expressway, late
night, on too many tokes of something
with a bouquet reminiscent of blueberries
and hayfields, I saw your face in the tread
marks and oil stains. Even on the road,
your lips are rain clouds; thunderclaps
against my skin. My stereo's sadistic shuffle
settles on The Cure, Pictures of You, and I
know my course. The reflectors slice the
night into Frost's Wood and I choose
the Undiscovered Country of Dots. We
communicate through dots, you and I.
Signals, radar blips. Dots that advocate Truth.
Dots that lay waste to Gods. Dots that say
I'm Sorry about Everything. But dots
can't carry the one
