LOVESICk

 

I’m a lovesick piggy

under big sick tities

how do I turn this image

into something pretty

 

How do I name your body

in a tasteful manner baby

how do I sing my feelings

with decorum baby

 

two kids tumbling in white sheets baby

we wrestlers wrestling each others urges baby

 

how to get the gist

get the gist of this baby

 

you make a great listen baby

do I sound to you

like you do to me

do we sound to them 

like they do to us

the cries from the streets 

outside this window this city

the creaks from the ropes of the boats at the dock

the thumps of the boats against the waters body

thumps and speedbumps

that kneeling bus and heavy sighing baby

sounding like hard work this city

hard and lonely

 

hard n lonely baby hard n lonely
