Hello there, did you know
you're the diapers cushioning
the incontinence of my thoughts?
Sometimes, I'm sorry for the nature
of this gravitational pull
and my smutty intonations,
but I'll always revere
the day you walked into
the bedroom of this
ramshackle old hut,
with crudely-hewn boards and
brackish furniture,
like clumsy legs besmirched by scars,
all splayed apart and stuck in ruts.
Yes, there's no doubt
what a fastidious and unfaltering
contractor you are,
dexterously breathing
renovation to the derelict,
and crisp air to the dank.
And now you stand back,
posture ram-rod straight,
surveying your work,
and ready for repose in the room
of your assiduous efforts
come to fruition.
You're the warm indentation
on one side of the bed,
and the familiar smell of dried drool
resting serenely on the pillow.
It may only seem unsettling
how i haven't woken from
this comforting dream,
a bolster to grasp
in the darkest and most disorienting of nightmares.
But waking next to you
is like a shaft of toasty light
caressing ruffled sheets
on a Saturday morning
with warm hashbrowns
waiting outside in the kitchen.
