If all my compositions are a form
of modern divination, and I can write
my future out by hitting my space buttons,
then let me always write about you,
about flying, and about melting.

There is nothing else, I find, 
that I can say, that is not happening.
Well. So. Here it is! All this. And 
everything comes to a frenzy, and we 
will make short work of these perfect days.

I worry, you know, that I will dissolve
under scrutiny, without my
linear words lining my backbone and
keeping me upright, rather than my standard
whipping coils. I cant help but pace.

If I could be as well delineated as my hair!
Do you see why I have not been sending these poems?
They are all too much about THIS, and I am not
convinced that I should be saying or thinking
any of these melting, soft-serve thoughts.

(Not that I have gotten anywhere near enough
invisible reassurance for my nervous need
to support your happiness, as the only method possible
of supporting my own. I swear its absurd,
how much I know your ghost-smiles matter now.)

If all my compositions are a form
of modern divination, and I can write
my future out by hitting my space buttons,
then let me never get caught praying 
out your awful bliss for you, like a magician.
