all night |
i could watch her all night like an owl watches the bright star all day like the hummingbird watches the feeder fill like the man who smokes his cigar in the bar i want you like a whiskey drink when i am lonely like a frog watches the fly it wants to catch and the will power patience it takes for the one shot it gets i wish my eyes could always stay open- to watch you like that the intensity of a cricket chorus at dusk, a frantic pulsing the rush of the sun near the horizon in the last moments holding onto it with a lasso rope so beautiful the moment of the horizon sun but that's the best part is when you open your eyes is when the sky opens its eyes and the clouds form rorschach studios in the sky |
