SwingingA Poem by Teri M
If I remember anything about tonight,
I hope it's the way that I felt like Lux lisbon when I swung too high, because the sunlight fell down through the leaves and grazed my eyes and that's what Jeffrey would have wanted, even though i'm not often blonde, and my bed never had a canopy to hang my rebellion on, and we don't ever get fish flies where I come from, and I've got the correct amount of teeth in my mouth. And how strange it had seemed to me that I should feel like her, when it was Bonnie who swung from the rope, and it's Therese whose name I almost share.
