Something You Said

Just the usual making lemonade out of lemons bullshit, when in fact I believe that if life hands you lemons you better learn how to ferment that shit 'cause yer gonna need it!
THE REST OF IT GOES HERE
Something You Said

Something you said about the redolence
Of worms in rain the day we met
Persuades the brain to stay the storm,
Or how poem gnawed stars from bone
And the heart splayed robin’s wings
And soared to springs of second chances.
Spooning you as faucet drips presence,
Guts letting day’s caged butterflies go,
Zen moon chuckling koans through window,
The candle’s flame lapping at shadows,
Somewhere in the room spiders make more,
Their moans and ours an octave away.
Something you said about sadness
Being a story we could nix from existence,
Or revise to triumph like an Easter Christ,
Or clutch to our hearts like the tales
Of the Grails we’ve found in each other,
Changes no to yes to this and every then.

quite right -
'Changes no to yes to this and every then.'
