thirty seconds
library on cornish
with the two green sofa chairs
in front of a walled window
where i looked out to see a sun melting
and then back up again to see if you too
were also looking
library, 42 minutes before the sun would set
our cars parked in parallel to one another
both white and yet they will never intersect
you read your comic and get up to look
for something else less intrguing
and i read more pound and wonder if I am
even breathing
half way behind the wall you look at me
with the sun in your eyes starting to melt
i catch you and wonder how
long you had been wathcing
in the library on cornish
in the green chair, with the sun behind us
i fell in love with you for thirty seconds
in the library on cornish with the sun
set and gone and its blackness in your eyes
and its ashes in your heart
and its melting fire in mine
i come back to sit in the same green chairs
wihtout you where,
i fall in love with you again
every other thirty seconds
and where i am still in love you
every thirty second
and every
last
beating second
and i wonder if I am still breathing
and I wonder what book you found
and if she is much more intriguing
and i wonder whom you are now watching
