Goodbye Blue Sighs
After gold leafing my sighs
and helium pumping them
thin skinned and flying
you will find me
stinging juniper breath
from popping wine soaked
juniper berries between my front teeth.
Don't ask questions.
Don't laugh giggles in your gut
uncontrollable and imagination squashing
Just pull up a chair,
get your hands dirty with gold leaf
Give up your sighs to the heavens
and snap me a juniper promise.
Then we'll both be smiling.
