you're holding yourself back
step out a bit
to see where you're at
how funny things are
contradictions
desperations
what for? 'til when?
but for who?

in the kitchen last night
we scaled love
but we never got it right
never do, do we?
nay, this isn't a kitchen-sink
theory, hell no

in the kitchen last night
there was fear of cultivating
thoughts of days going by,
unnoticed existence
how to defrost sighs?
miseries? resentment?

this is right in itself --
whatever we have is
a perfect apology as always
you walk away or
you stay put and wait
for a release
sway a bit perhaps?
we can do that

marriage? marriage.
my indoors nasal allergy

step out a bit
the air tickles
the back of your ears
