Tool BoxA Poem by Monday ParkerNight consuming me A wool blanket over my eyes I stand at secret ravine Hot air balloon of my mind Expanding Breathing Growing, large enough to bust As if an egg Running it’s clear Soulful mucus’s Down my bare legs I see you there, hiding in my shadows Like a desperate midnight criminal Waiting to leap Pounce Starving wild cat You’re a lost being Pressing your naked body into the Chilling unforgiving wind Alone Fighting for your voice For your opinion Next to my solid tool box You will stand still as I pass Smelling my perfume Swiftly, momentarily Tickling your bird-like nose I am gone Your standing Toddling in circles Looking for the reason you sneezed © 2008 Monday Parker |
