sad music from five years before I was born
collecting and burning album covers,
to see red
"the lovers will rise up,
and the mountains touch the ground"
lift it up, over the ground,
listening for her footsteps, they collapse through the snow
short flashes of involuntary muscle movements
extreme fear, the way the stars were placed there to cover the sky, just for you
just then, she is, we are all, just regular size
relaxing, stretching, watching
the clouds and train wheels
hold her close while you kiss her
if you kiss her,
when you kiss her,
hang points of light in the sky, for her, my lonely friend
