Tomorrow

TOMORROW

    t'would lift
                   me up in the honey dew
the sky dripping with golden refrain     t'would
  also be a Friday
for presents and cake    not for me

if life was fair      t'would legitimize
    my lazy days
t'would be a day where no one ran away
an outdoors swim toweled off

a day where arms were full
for me and him   t'would that i
were on a Minnesota high
and my darling at a fetching
table for a family of four

   i'd be okay
if normal was the only case

this mime can't escape the box
except for dandelions at home base

i see a fluffy-fat and snowy bunny
but not up close   she struggles
                           out of arms
                reach   so my pair of grands

who grow with each passing day

my kiss don't reach

ruby lipstick on the screen's
                         hard to throw
               that far
