Waveform

On a page torn from this book

I drew a waveform with your blood

So I follow it, and so remorse

Courses through my body, of course

In a little while I’ll go

Unless you might want to hang a while

Then I won’t

You're the only one I found so far

So outside I could be around

So come down

Come over

On the cutting board

The lights were shutting down

An avocado cut through your thumb

Coursing out

Already undone

In a little while I’ll go

Unless you might want to hang a while

Then I won’t

You're the only one I found so far

So outside I could be around

You should come down

Over through the fire escape

It’s so late

But I know you aren’t tired yet

I’ll bet you've got a couple things you think I should know

But unless you wanna say it now

I’ll go
