SOMETHING ELSE


We here who are on this page agree
no couples court, no dual digits
no bar stools of pairs, 
crowding the perfectly good 
tables 

We firebirds, we peacocks
we pigeons crashing into windows

We feel bad + good + graceful
our voices change
from gold to gravel 
sultry or infected, 
depending on
the light 

taking the temperature, putting grass against the wind
sifting for it: something else
