The 4th of July
I hid my contorted smile -
As my face shot jagged, unforgiving angles.
And yours, bulbous and drooping -
Asked me to stop shouting and sit.
Like a prince.
A curious girl in a purple dress -
Asked what I thought.
If we could grind up old things -
Like doorknobs and old statues.
We melted into each other.
We train dogs -
To not be dogs -
But be simple humans.
We still keep them leashed -
In case the dog part takes over.
When you are nothing -
You can see everything.
Desire blinds us.
This world -
Waits to really be seen.
