Paint, Flirt, Laugh & Love
Paint:
It goes where it isn’t supposed to
Much like the way your stares
Found their way through
This zoo of emotion
Sometimes caged
Sometimes free and causing panic.
Flirt:
I do it when I want to
Much like catching you unawares
Slipping your panties below the hem as I’m wont to do
Who knew paint sticks
In the way my tongue licks
Sometimes free and causing panic.
Laugh:
Feeling this through and through
Much like an unspoken dare
Between children caught in a moment
We’re throwing shit
We’re messy and
Sometimes free and causing panic.
Love:
It’s just what you and I do.
Much like tragedy’s flare
Firing off inescapable signals
That we belong
We nest
We crest in our peaks
And fall in our troughs
And through it all
Cerulean madness, plum pageantry
Egg white nudity, Forest green canopy
We find ourselves
Sometimes free and causing panic.
