i can smell the rain
John Dorsey
from the window
it's coming on
better more real than
the chinese food
i've been craving lately
but i can't think about that
or anything but you
sitting by the jewish cemetery
when i die
i may walk
on water
or trip gently over my own words
not being jewish
i'm not sure
i've always been a little unsteady
when it comes to tradition
but staring at the back
of that bench sitting on the grass
i've never wanted to kiss someone anyone this much
just wanting to hold your hand
instead i say nothing
bowing to
my own tradition
