I hope your mom doesn't hate me
Ambulance sirens and fireflies
the thrum of cicadas
the drone of the street outside
Poetry dripping from the pipes
slipping from my mind
your name is getting too damn loud
I've got a banging headache and
the songs at the grocery store
were suddenly all about you
But you're not gay and
maybe it's better
for both of us
this way
