25/30 - The Laugh Dream

THE LAUGH DREAM

so far :

seduced me

with your smart

overwhelmed me

with your sexy

delved me

in your deep

in the dream:

you kiss me mouth hello

this has not happened before

you have decided something

people notice

you get up on a stage

do scene with a woman

fresh

come sit down next to me

now you are wearing white terry cloth robe

tied with belt why

before I can whisper in your ear

‘we need to shoot that’

you kiss me again longer like you can

I look at you not knowing

gossips are internetting

yes there is definitely something going on around here

nobody told them

you bow your head down to me

for some of that good white girl understanding slowly

reluctantly place right palm on your head

give you what you have not asked for

now they are sure we have been secreting for a good long time

(what they are seeing is conception

not birth conception)

you raise your head

I must look at you with confusion

you say something

you say something so damn funny

poke hot air balloon wide open

make fun of us both right there so well with so few words

say in my voice

‘I seen your sexy – it don’t impress me like that’

and we laugh

we laugh teeth

that makes them angry

if we can laugh like that it’s fine

if we can laugh like that together it’s all fine

So OK.

Yes.

let them say what they like
