Goji Berry Sunset

Goji berry sunset

That’s how it all started

Sitting on the lakeside

Talking about old times

Arms laced with red thread

Forget the things that I said

Quote a line from Tennyson

Poetry is medicine

Your name fizzes on my tongue

Oh your name, it fizzes on my tongue

Damn that name

Walk through the bluebells

Pollen dust and pastels

Bury the Bible

Now you’re being tribal

We told too many bad jokes

Sherbet laughs and cold coke

Maybe you’re my favorite

I like the beard, don’t shave it

Your name fizzes on my tongue

Oh your name, it fizzes on my tongue

Your name fizzes on my tongue

Damn that name
