+todo los dias
+2016-07-21
+
+***
+
+waiting under a forever blue sky
+among trees of green and yellow
+I would say "wish you were here"
+but there are no postcards for sale
+
+a silver wire to soon be on my finger
+a hasty proposal before a flag is taken down
+"are you mine?" the ancient question begs
+"or is this all a joke?"
+
+only purple is a unit here
+not pink, which has dissolved into the blue
+due to a lack of interest
+and my shorts are gray
+but they don’t have to be shorts
+they can just be gray
+
+say hello to your new lover for me
+for I'm sure that you’ve already found someone
+and the lonely bleeding blue boy will continue wandering
+across these well-worn paths
+
+the wedding tonight has been cancelled
+one of the brides is going home sick
+you have twelve hours to make up your mind
+she loves me, she loves me not
+
+she loves me not
+and the petals fall to the floor
+I shouldn’t have wished for so much
+but the sham will continue
+for the benefit of the little girls
+still dreaming, still hoping, still planning
+don't crush their dreams
