Should Be Doing XYZ

 I should be seeing the news

Alien life forms, room temperature 

Super conductors, and the agenda

Seeping from my childhood toys 

Bleeding hot pink,

But I'm standing in the dining room

Holding my tongue, the greatest truth

Right on my lips, right on your lips

You kissed me

It hurt and helped and exploded

From the top of my head to my soul

A thousand dreams became reality

In a brilliant rush

I care not for anything else

I would rather enjoy my time on this rock

Curled in the safest and scariest arms

I have ever known. 

Spring Fever in 2013

Everything is now green,
like Kishi Bashi in the spring
on an afternoon of bright
lights and sweet delights
melona ice cream
and red bean bread
please don't tell me that these
beautiful things, their magic and
this singing, 
don't tell me it will end

...
well,
can we make it again?

Brown

Brown eyes in the sunlight
And all those silver hairs
Wrinkles at my smile lines
And between my brows
My face freckled more each year
The sun's kisses rarely fade
I don't think there's anything
I'd really like to change

Candy Hearts

You make me a little girl again
A princess dancing in her
Purple floral dress
With my hair in pretty curls,
My hands in dainty white gloves
You give me candy hearts
They speak of love
