you are there, i am here
thinking thoughts - warm and comfortable
like flannel cotton bottoms made just for popcorn
the little psycho-bubble that doesn't float in erin-land
is calling out from the post office of unknown
and hello kitty is wearing
her nurse's costume for halloween
she is holding up her acknowledgement bag
hinting at tricks, expecting treats and hoping for the best
hey sport
i am here on state street in image-land
floating cartoons on a nearby lake
miss cartoon is wearing her pda on her sleeve
i blew up her raft with long steamy
breaths of exasperation
i would rub your shoulder if i could
instead, i am building neurotic castles
twig by twig, nailed to the 2x4 sunbeams
that float your image out to the horizon
it's a beautiful sunset
you will have to see it sometime
