Don't bother with a search for me tonight
for I'll be nowhere within time's keen sight
I am visiting a lonely poet
and there is music in this lair
We are tangled up in heaven's web
dodging each earthly prayer
Perseus is promising to free me
if I kiss away space's outer despair
so I jump 14 times, from line to line
over iambic pentameters
all the way there
and 154 ardent stars
all applaud and burst into joyous tears.
But this certainly, is not a sonnet,
and I am obviously no Shakespeare.
I wrote this simple, silly note
just to let you know
I'm with another friend tonight
So please forgive me,
when you don't find me here
Giggling. That's all.
