~Look Out~
on a midnight
on a weekend
on a night like this
i reached for the arms of an hourly lover
her impersonal touch
an empty face
a heart so fallible
my skin so weak
our disavowed kiss
a disconnect from grace
i've given to the bone
taken to the grave
pseudonyms abound
cultivated the meek
(i told her) "i love you..."
and i meant it...
