I have lost you to sleep again.
Sleeping as we do on opposite sides of a venn diagram
I read the time in shadows on the wall
The shards of light
Through the slats on your window
Ah ha ha ha!
I ease myself from under your languid arm,
Fumble on my boots and hear you breathe through your alarm
I disarm it for you,
You rarely heed it anyway
I wouldn't want it to intrude upon your dream,
School bell ring messing up the play
Ah ha ha ha!
A note, penned clumsily in this century's type-ruined hand saying gone down the shops for a walk
I'll bring back some sandwiches and then I kiss your face, the black and the blue tie it into my laces, I don't want the wander blocking up theview
Ah ha ha ha!
I stumble out into the afternoon. Still salty from drink and the late night pool
I'll be gone an hour at most, you will be more diagonal I've a head on me in the post, I know, a castle swallowed in the swell.
Ah ha ha ha!
