here is facelove (ps i love you)
i apologize a million times over for defaming ps i love you.
////////
your love is like a giant strawberry thrown in my face
your love is like a delicious glass of wine thrown in my face
your love is like naive dreams of mine thrown in my face
here is phones.
a song both earnest and absurd.

Soup when you’re sick
Or bending when you need it
Cars picked up late at night
Hospital visits
And by your side
At bedside table
With trepid eyes
Your nurse comes in
Says wander about
Get some air
The sun’s still out
In cancerous wards
I won’t go home
I’d sleep the night
‘Til the morning comes
If I have to show
In ten times the ways
I’d do it from towers
And shout your name
In sun-drenched towns
I’d find a place
Watch south-built buildings
By your ocean’s graze
These things now
Are only over the phone
An Atlantic Ocean
Closes down
But I’m still hollow
Ten times a day
In my heart
