surprises in the easy sea


too many amputated feelings.
I can't reattach them with werds.

these are the kind of nights I love...

after.

Ted Danson called me.
two poetry readings.
a shot of old bourbon.

another phonecall.

I was there.
right?
for real.
with wisdom in my skyrocket.
and ignorant love in my smart heart.

I was there.
with you.
in a drifting bargain bin.
