Poem: "Saturday Lullaby"

"Saturday Lullaby"

There are leaves everywhere
it is nearly the September
of my mutual unraveling

maybe there is a chance
that the phone will stop
its incessant misquito

the bed is unkempt
the sheets have turned
a pale yellow white

the birds outside are circling overhead
the raindrops feel bitter
on my tongue

if I allow memory to linger a while longer
maybe someday will end
and we'll be in each other's arms
once more.
