Girl Ankles

Life’s wonder is
your little fresh face
You & I and We.

An oily night &
two blobs of mercury
hang together
jutting out electricity.

My face comes along like a TV set
decorated & tuned
to creep cold across the carpet
& suck.

Life trip charmer
I always come home to
you & your ankles.

2001 timewarp / all ages at once.
If you ask me why I want you so
I won’t look back
nor stop the worship.

— Going thru a weird daze of life
& groovy!
