Poems from hornr
On some of my better days
I rise before the sun does
That darkness, the hopeful kind
Cradles me the way that my front yard
Holds rainwater...
About ten minutes ago, you called my phone
You had something on your mind
A cold, dark night meant to be spent alone
And you had something...
Wake up! Wake up! Get up and out of your bed
In the next five minutes or you are as good as dead
Why would you sleep when could be getting...
My teeth are custard.
They’re soft
And can’t cut things
But at least they’re sweet.
My sweat is fast.
It slides
Down into my eye
Quicker...
Last month at this time
I would have been able to sleep
Unencumbered by what I didn’t want
But not wanting doesn’t come cheap
Remember...
