waking up to smell the roses july 21, 2024
if she wants me to stop I will stop it
I get confused when she turns
the faucet on then off
a mixed message
when I'm already puzzled
by what she wants
or doesn't want and
with no means to know
which she means
does no mean me no
or does it sometimes
mean yes
the link there less than a week ago
suddenly absent and though
I know where it ends up
I keep from subscribing
just the way I kept out of signt
all those years ago
scared that if I stick my nose in that door
she might slam the
door on it
better clever elusive than sorry
nothing is ever clear with her
so I'll go back to where I started
that petulant Frat
boy who
needs a drink or
do I dunk my head t
o wake up
to smell if not the roses
then reality
like it or not
