crickets chirping
another kind of silence
love-

leeway is a tricky thing
how much exactly is needed?

all this outside
reflecting off the green
caterwauling
confusing garfieldinfused
day-

dreams are so damn tricky.

reach for the stars
they say, and mean
“not too far”
because events so big
shift horizons
and suck you in

tonight, tonight
so bright

tonight, tonight
you better take care
of that pumpkin patch
before fairy god-

vraaaaaoooooooooooom!
mother******!!
it’s past midnight!!

ah,
these are the times.
