I want to tell you I know what it’s like
To feel dumb and worthless
and
make mistakes ripe
But don’t you know there’s golden wisdom
under
the skin?
I want to tell you I know what it’s like
To feel dumb and worthless
and
make mistakes ripe
But don’t you know there’s golden wisdom
under
the skin?
Watching little league
behind a tough Italian
Scary
Big
Huge
Divine presence
Facade
Nice
Family friend, I guess
Figures
Just a guy with
gold chain and cross
Warm dark
brown eyes
Slicked back jet black hair
Thick hands
HowyoudoinTighthandshakelookineye
Track jacket
Track pants
Like my dad
And all the other old souls
Spinning away from the sun
Unfolding bones
With weary magic
Look closely and see
On an island staircase
Underneath burnt skin
And stinging winds
tired faces that walk
And token bus token surprises
That Chug chug chug by hibiscus sprinkled hills
Opening and closing
Rising and falling
In morning glory time
