what is wrong 				
the words i chose
when is the show 				
don’t stay long
	
        squinting in the parking lot
	waiting on a shoe to drop

who are you 					
frozen august
ill and dogged 				
tried and true
	
        torn up tickets at the gate
	laminated student rates

don’t be mine 				
no good money
unbecoming					
until the time

	to arrive in the smoky glow
	of unknowing unraveling

i can play most songs
if you give me a minute
lumped in the tub 
filled to the brim
watching the shows
stretching my toes
swirling the suds

here’s the life cord
wrapped to your wrist
it gives us the minute

here on the soft downy
lawn of the back of your head
we don’t check the weather
so much as stepping so lightly
shaking like an overwhelmed witness
speaking of growth of goodness
please come home now
and make your nest

	when it’s warmest
	we paint each other’s dreams
