deft dialogue sent me drowning
twirling through insipid infinite
melon mind bloated with
rancid rhetoric i can't seem to retire
/
the immeasurable moments we spend
talking our lives into meaning
/
antique afternoon sun stained your brow
thirteen immediate ways to say you're beautiful
pleasure in pontificating forever
on the mind, outer space, and their sameness
/
the lifetime we'll spend
talking our lives into meaning
