fresh cut grass by Angela Thomasand you know, and I know, that everytime
that I call you, I've been drunk, intoxicated
under something that must have tasted
just like honeysuckle. Tonight was different
though, the air smelled like fresh cut grass
and it looked like a dream, a light cloud
with light scattered about, thrown into all
the places that would normally be dark,
especially those places. So, within one
of the darkest places I can think of, something
stirred. I dialed. It rang twice. An automated
voice asked me to leave a message. I thought
I already had sent you all I could. One full week
sober, that's all I wanted to tell you, that's all I've got. 02/16/2005 Posted on 02/16/2005 Copyright © 2023 Angela Thomas
