I looked you up
To call you up
I haven't talked to you in close to five years
My palms were sweaty
Hands shaking
The taste of fear rests on on the tip of my tounge
How bittersweet
Nearly regretable
I nearly forgot how that feeling kicks my heart out of pace
As you spoke to me
Splendidly unforgetable
You're voice so comforting, like MR. Bumpkin and my blankie
While getting over it
This feeling of content
I ask you for one more favor, Dad may I speak to Mom?
But all you say to me is
why dont you just come down stairs.
I read your poems today. My favorires are:
changed and alone
fail
swear it
and untitled.
I searched postpoems' bios for interesting "bellybutton" poems - a very tedious process, sifting through the "innies" and "outies". Thanks for your originality,
and please keep writing,
Sara
