day 13: h. news

My head is filled with song
My mouth, oil, in place of the blood
      that comes from sucking in
      and biting the insides of my cheeks

The earthly starscape is a
light map
going up the new road on Badger Mtn
I sometimes forget how beautiful
this place can be,
This
giant's footprint
between basalt and mountains

You are on your way
in less than two weeks

You are on your way
in less than two weeks

I need my rest
I need to rest my head on
one of spring's sky pillows
the light wouldn't bother me if
I could just rest there for a whole day

You are on your way
I think you want to see me

I'm just going to enjoy
this little crush
for what it is

Whatever it is

For what it is
