dream date

unfettered, uncomplicated, but overcaffeinated

and vainly hoping that you won't bore me

i circle back to starting points

vague fixtures

go 'round and 'round

'til i end where?

the where doesn't matter

except i am alone

untangled

streamlined

and thinking what i really want, then

is not to be bored or boring

calcified, captive, corrupt

so i involve myself

these aren't dreams, these are stories!

and I am so self-involved

but in a buttery sense

frictionless

and sometimes so simple

as to be a dot- harmless, clean

clean and sleeping.

disembody

on being stone cold

and calibrated

as not to forgive

or concede

i foster dissent in your absence

and won't be touched unprepared-

caught at wrong angles

curled 'round any finger

and you felt it at the start-

my stony finger

now pulling the trigger
