Birthday

Folder: 
2026

it is hard work

weaving the earth together

but you are here

on another spin again

 

come on & wait

find the perfect moment to

make me blast music

make me lose my breath

 

can’t wait to explore

that horizon, no,

that one, no I want

all of them with you

 

bring me kite strings

and polar bears in the

same day (not even

global warming) just Feeling

 

rope me in I want to be

literally stuck with you

while you tell me about

your latest brainstorms

 

yes we could call them

hurricanes, tsunamis,

full of color & not usually

knowing where they’re going

 

kiss me into shape

I will keep bursting

outside the lines or

inside the pages

 

show me a face that

has seen all the monsters

and still finds a way to

make everything fun

 

smile at me in the midnights

lay with me in the after

trace your laugh lines onto

places I’ll sleep tonight

 

I only want to break these rules

if we can find a bridge

to cling climb close

 

that is to say I only want

to cross the great abyss
