Half Genius. Half Dopey.


I saw you blush.

The red rising to your cheeks from
the abashed you were taught to feel.
I wondered if it came with
anything else that could be real.

I saw you smile.

Along came the decision I never wanted to make;
               where would this go.
               Who am I to say.

Explanations of the fall sound better in The Fall.
Rome.
Roam.

Who’s in charge here?

I saw you feel.
Just for a moment, eyes lit anew.
I saw you smile.
I saw you blush.

This line is one short of eight beats.
I can lie. You should try it too.
We both know you did up until
you didn’t think I would catch you.

I saw you blush.

I know I fucking crave your smile,
GODAMN IT, I FEEL YOU GRIN.

It is so nice to hear you laugh,

Does it feel the same when you win?
