come on over

come on over

A Poem by knightcall

up on the shelf
haven't been marked down
put on special
your shopper card won't ignite
if you scan me

and i wonder what your life has
cast you today
whatever part of the world is hurting
i'm glad they have your touch
because surely i've known it

i get home and i wander
and you say
come on over
maybe i'll throw an elbow
two minutes in the box seems
especially cruel ever since you said
come on over

and i get a bit distracted
it seems to me
i'm playing a different game
happy to be taken off the shelf
you can dust me for ingredients
i'm just happy when you say
come on over
