It was the middle of February
and then sometime in July.
Once more by your birthday.
A ring of candles,
a sharper chorus with each passing year.
Why does he look at you
so much more carefully than the others?
What makes him tend so closely?
Stretch out and recline,
turn over the day
and leave your window open.
Spinning shameless against wet stone.
Spitting up drunk in the driveway.
Cigar clippings by the bamboo.
A matte network of indigo veins
wrestling covers over pillows,
yelling at the TV with your parents,
helping you out of your clothes,
climbing off you and rolling back
onto new blue sheets.
