Passing Boxcars |
by Ernest Williamson III
day is her smile
night in tandem with a light of purple
milky blue eyes coated in hazel urbanity
find me lost and found in the willows nearby
sing to me
without noise
make love music
as it can be
for the hearty gasp
of the lonely freckled boy
smothered in literature
not of his own
as infirmity levels the listless cloudy nights
only when that lady sitting on the cobblestone
sleeps and assuages the hush of her contentment
lovely and happy
all without the bothering nodes
of me
