Blue Eyes

by M. Diamond

Blue eyes
Oh blue eyes!
under rivers and bridges and dams
contract and squeeze
the wonder of the earth
though still beneath me
it is not yet gravel i heave
young souls burst poof! as a
lightness comes through

it's the scarcity of your wisp
i complain but too long
fingers touch me, blue eyes
come here, this is your song

plain as day, a regular tune
money falling from trees
like the sun in June
ah, hint to me that it is night
so I climb toward you
a young lover with
red tie and shoes
my gaze, like loose knees
sways from this vessel to you

straight from third dimension
a gargantuan blue sky whipping from
continent to continent to settle on a
park bench between us two

t'was a straight shot
ms. blue eyes, the clearest
most frenetic shot one could take
and it landed, just so
as they say "killing two birds with one stone"
dropping succulent vines of truth and time
around our bodies came intertwined
