morphine

Wishing for the disconnect....
every action has an equal and opposite
ambivalence.
(In this house, young lady,
we obey the laws of
thermodynamics!)
Wishing for a morphine swim
in warm waters on a warm night.
Wishing for legs bumping into my
legs in the middle of the night.
Wishing for anti-wishes,
buddhist-blank-slate.
I see red-orange bubbles rippling up
from a purle-blue deep,
sucrose stream of bright and popping
fizzle-stick whirlwinds.
Muttering to midnight wishes.
Furrowed neck, rusted gears.
Your move, Mr. Fickle Finger o' Fate
