Let Me Sing You A Poem

By Khristy Nickerson

I thought I felt someone staring, so I frantically followed foot steps In the snow, leading to the bathroom window, accompanied by a chair and I felt your presence there I thought maybe a few weeks of cartoons and a pair of brand new shoes could make air go the opposite way, I nodded and said "i promise I won't say", but I never said I wouldn't sing, tones can technically make your "one" into two disparate things Sneak into my room to speech and tell me I'm too young to be reading sentimental fantasies, but old enough to know love is another word for bias, that Barbie couldn't possibly marry Ken because no chemistry in this world ever really exists I thought maybe a few weeks of cartoons and a pair of brand new shoes could make air go the opposite way, I nodded and said "i promise I won't say", but I never said I wouldn't sing, tones can technically make your "one" into two disparate things In the barn there were shadows of rusted up nothingness, aside antique coca cola bottles collected back in nineteen forty-eight and diagonal were trays, freezing and molding my blood, and I stared, praying that i was inhaling some kind of poison in the air, Not realizing I had already taken my last breath, but by then it was too late I thought maybe a few weeks of cartoons and a pair of brand new shoes could make air go the opposite way, I nodded and said "i promise I won't say", but I never said I wouldn't sing, tones can technically make your "one" into two disparate things I thought maybe a few weeks of cartoons and a pair of brand new shoes could make air go the opposite way, I nodded and said "i promise I won't say", but I never said I wouldn't sing, tones can technically make your "one" into two disparate things And you said I looked crazy because I didn't smile all too often, you should've seen all the teeth when i heard you had been relocated underground, in a coffin
