Party
For your birthday I give you the sideways articulation
of red-tailed shadows against the
screaming stop light crush,
The sweat-stained, wine-soaked nights
Spent nodding into cottons
And a box of dreams felt once then
Unopened and lost.
We’ll sing ether wafted alleys,
robot-kissed breasts
bright ribbons
two-penny condoms--
I’d give you the sky if you would speak again
my baby angel
