a lost poem
there was a poem here
surrounded by floral patterns
and covered over with grit (and nausea)
and a thin layer of excitement,
that feeling you get every time
you touch upon something new.
and although i don't remember much of what it said,
it spoke to me of deserts, and oases, and bejeweled sand.
(the sun was sweating.)
and it talked of dreams, and dreamery, and how i did not belong
beyond the picket fence.
but i glanced at the world beyond
the hedge, anyway, because i thought to myself
that the clouds are not as opaque as they are
made out to be.
(instead, they are translucent,
like frosted glass.)
