poem

mwpm

 

the first
sets the standard
& everything

that follows
can only hope to be
an approximation

â—Š â—Š â—Š

the sun off the mirror
looked like
a butterfly aflame

i wanted to put out
the flame
& the sun with it

â—Š â—Š â—Š

you lit you
r cigar
ette i got

burnt
in the
bargain

â—Š â—Š â—Š

all i ask is
you tell me when
it’s over

no one ever has
why should you be
any different
