AFTER 900 HOURS ON THE INTERNET



The Weeknd the Morning

Last nights mascara makes my lashes stick together
Warm cool sheets fill the spaces between my fingers
My eyelids part opening the floodgates-

remember 

what 

happened 

last 

night


Que the montage of crossed legs 

and
Laughter 

A dozen applications of lipstick in tiny mirrors held by a manicured hand 
or in the dim light of a grafiti bathroom.
Slow blinks during conversations 
when eyes meet eyes that call for eyes.
And cheeks rise 
in city lights
"I dropped my bag! 
Pass me that napkin please! 
You're the sweetest man I've ever seen"

And there he is, unawakened by the roar of the imagery I piece together.
Should I stay or should I go?
