Fall For the Eyes

fall for the eyes once over again, spin up, spin down & wonder if you’ll ever hit the ground again---ceasing the caring of all the poetry that came before because s/he is staring right back into you & all of a sudden the Autumn sun starts to make its way into your heart (look again! look again!) make that cup of coffee & walk down that hallway & ease into that line of work & get up for your break, steal a look, thieve a peek & take it all in stride, cause’ if you don’t live now then when you gonna do it? nobody is counting your days except you & all our wicks are burning, all our fuses growing shorter---at a different rate? (you never know)---so fall for his/her eyes again now, sink deep into those stargazing “windows” & indulge, indulge, indulge, no matter your age, no matter your persuasion, we’ve only so many heartbeats saved for these occasions.
