sometimes whole days pas and all i have thought about is poetry and people i am in love with

lyrics

Poetry

I thought about two things today
I thought about poetry
and I thought about you

and extensions of these two things
like, poetry about you
poems that you'd fit into

poetics that we enacted last night with such passion
and where that might in fact lead to
now that last night is through
and i sit here alone this afternoon
and i don't know where you sit or with whom

i thought of poetry i might compose
and where this might go between us now and how slow
i thought about not thinking about you
but that didn't seem to go like i wanted it to

so, i wrote a new poem
and you were my subjet
i wrote a true ode
and you were the subject
i wrote and i wrote
i thought about you and i thought about poems

i thought about these two subjects
