i suppose when you squint
and look away that it isn't
me that is the distance
learning child
but i wonder
perhaps when you
twist and rattle
at the problems
in erin-land
i should know
sometimes it needs
to be someone else
with the wand of pleasure
but it would be nice
to chant
stumble and tumble
stubble on my chin
whisper the sweetness
so we can begin again
yes and
it would be so comforting
for all my insecurities
if i could make you laugh
out loud
even if it isn't my position to
present you with enchantment
