Love & Pancakes

Vintage Words

.

If it was standing on my front porch

I'd miss it even if it rang the doorbell

insistently - I would not hear.

.

If love is for wanting but not for working

at like completing a painting or a stack

of pancakes, then I would own

quarter portraits on the walls

and trash cans full of uneaten

dough.

.

But if I answer the door and smile

finish the artwork and get fed

my life might, just might  end up

gettin' lived.
