jane in every moment
i imagine a thousand futures
with you, in lieu
of the past two decades
we spent with others. perhaps piscean
urges are to blame. those fishy
bubbles wafting a ladder
to the clouds, where my mind
turns over
and portmanteaus our names,
and thinks about your lips
between my lips
(north or south),
or how i smelled you on my skin
all day after i left your bed
a cheeky undertone to my afternoon
wondering if the members of this
stale public workforce
had ever known such fire.
