Promises

Have you ever made a promise
That was only a dream?
Imaginations that we wish
Would come true and in that moment
You are swept away with an
Impossible possibility to conceive
I tend to sink very deeply
Into people mostly all the way
There isn’t a lot that I don’t
Feel comfortable getting in or
Close to even if it means
All the work will disappear
From beginning to know you
From vulnerability and fear
If it’s a fantasy of promises
Then let it be like science fiction
To both of us because to be close
You have to actually be there
Not just standing at the edge
Of the water throwing a bottle
With a message hoping it will
Arrive at its destination or even
Into the hands of your beloved
Sometimes a promise is a dream
If not to purée our feelings and
Drink them we must feel them
Out loud even if they cannot
Become true in the end
Imagination how silly
To go around smelling
Daffodils and lilies
Oh how I wish

Imagination

Establishment
Based in popular
Coat colors
That look awful together
But keep you warm

Chickens that befriend
A self sacrificing
Meal to uphold
Their true bonds
In friendship are
Rooster worthy
The egg came first

Past particles of
Adhesives that never
Disappear but
Are occasionally good
For hanging things on

Even though it’s cold outside
It sure looks fashionable
Why don’t cold weather folks
Have clothing lines?

I have a thought
Lost in my nose
And my finger
Cannot reach it
The doctor says
It’s just my imagination
And that’s exactly why
I’m trying to find it
