So, we set out for obscurity

Drinking in the movie theater, wine and gin.
drive home, drunk, and your hair glows green with
the digital clock.
You look more beautiful with each minute displayed.
Drinking in the basement, wine and gin
sleeping with the fishes, I also breath liquid in.
you finished me off with each passing kiss.
Baseball pants with stains, of wine and gin
my face illuminated by computer light
when you told me you missed me
you were right
you were right.

Birds of paper

I wake up to the pigs getting fat off my name
Rolling a cigarette I remember last nights dream.
You were in the bathroom feathering your hair
And I was watching from the doorway entrance
Caught in your reflections gaze.
I wake up to the Paramedics checking my pulse,
Calculating time of death.
There were origami cranes in my sleep last night
That sent you messages in the wind.
Now I'm sitting on the side of the road
listening to squeals and sirens.
