I Waxed My Legs Last Night

And as I slept I dreamt

Those small red bumps appeared

As pain leapt from the pores

Blood began to speckle

As they slowly smoothed

It became a red trickle

Covering all the skin

It seeped from every space

The sheets that once where pale

Where looking rather frail

Washing out my skin

Face grown gray and stale

And colour leaps  

The fox’s way

Be my teacher, creature;

Wide eyes and live

At first morning rise...

Your rough urban hair

Far from my fair

Oh, sweet girl...

Chloe, did anyone ever tell you that you’re adorable?

Or that you’re too honest?

And that sometimes, when you wear your heart

Smeared across your sleeve

...people rub dirt into the wet.

Sweetie, you’re an angel without her wings,

Who plucked away your feathers?

Don’t you know that evil beings

Feed off wishes pure and clean

...please eat away their ties to you,

Your hearts so full of gold;

A heavy weight to hold.

Alive with love of a moment

I wish I was there to feel

The butterflies

Creep about your body

Twist your insides

And flutter through your words

I love to know you feel

This very way for me

I’d love to see you lustre

All your love for me
