Thanks out of the ribs
Come out of the crowd
friend to the world
skin to my fingers
tuned but not loud
Polished like pearls
by no human hand
earlier than blazes
cooler than girls
Wear a coat or face
that blinds the arrogant
with fierce avoidance
and timeless taste
thanks out of the ribs
light from dark daily
interview me between
headlights out of parallel
She gave me a line
of helium balloons
let it loose can I get
some back some time?
In the future we will use
verbs like conjugate
past lost as easily as
rainwater through a grate
Love like nothing we did
or felt with the hands
she gave me second dibs
thanks out of the ribs
