OBSERVATION SHOULD BE THE BASIS OF EXPRESSION
You wake up
You’ve got problems
You can see them
All over the floor
It’s pretty great
About half of life
But so many restaurants
Opening and closing
Girl talking to girl
Talking to boy talking
To man to woman
Snowflake in the window
All ragged
What do we want
You tell yourself
You deserve it
This and that
You stood there
The words sort of rushing
At that person
You used to love
Apple on the counter
You know there are certain things
You’re supposed to do
Love, mostly
Take off your glasses
Fold up
Why are we complaining
Kids are vegetarians
Every second a sweet conversion
You were outside
Of belief, once
Pink and bumpy
Your mom like a building
You could pass over
In an airplane
