Days In The Wake

from SLEEP SOUNDLY by Advrb

/

lyrics

the etching on the oak table
becomes clearer as i become nearer
to waking, rolling, tired but able.
early morning light shadow spotted
dappled down through cobweb covered windows
to my cranberry leather desk blotter.
the silver coffee set is shiny
and i smell popouri.
the afternoon is colored rust,
after you i lust.
(especially) in those woven wool trousers
wrapping softly your honey stick legs.
the grandfather clock chimes
and leonard is screaming for the sixth time today...
now it’s night and i’ve a candle
to protect me, help me handle
unplanned visists from these pictures,
of others, had and untouched, beckoning.
and even one of a skinny girl i never really knew.
but you, you’re the only one who can make me cry by smiling.
and you, you make better cookies than them, too.
