ode to a queen size bed # 23
by Jeffrey Paggi
Right away, you put me at ease,
put me to sleep,
with camel lights, and candle light nights,
silencing that ancient conversation
with yellowed newspaper articles, saying:
Write away, you put me at ease,
you take me down with burning hugs,
in piles of fallen leaves, & nightime pumpkins with glowing eyes—
with camel lights, and candle light nights.
I wake up in Sunday breezes and village
gravel—scraped knees, in dusty-silken voices saying:
Write away, you put me at ease.
Invading midnight-living room's diaries,
(some antiquated rusty oil-lamp dream,)
with camel lights, and candle light nights.
You; singing corner street lights,
and tree house star nights.
Write away, you put me at ease,
with camel lights, and candle light nights.
