My hands got dirty in this circle
I had to bury my love for you in many lover's necks
and their arms were never brown like yours
their minds never collapsed me as I wanted
I guess you were the poet
You were my Chinaski and my Plath
I had daydreamed of you and your city walks
That summer at the beach when you called
and said you had thought of me
because you were drinking Coronas and
watching the waves smash into the landscape
And I kept burying myself into moving objects
mainly humans who seduced me
but your face always seemed to hoover on the ceilings
So I kept writing you horrible letters
Letters that you didn't have time to read
You liked them, though, later
when you sat down for inspiration
said it was a good read
but dressing a naked page was never
easy for me, Christine
Because I hated every inch of your guts
and it was true
all those years
I loved your guts and
i was trying to outrun the ghost
and I was watching this evolution for
four long years
Until you called, with the same idea of
watching the ocean spit out things together
We knew, we
could do it better then anyone else
