The Rock Star’s Son
Sitting on the dock of the bed, The wind contains me from your open French doors (the opposite of my fire) Next to you, Picture windows framed above Free against the Colorado night sky... Starry mountain high We shake our butts nature nude Skin on skin Rustling Aspens just starting to Crisp A musical soundtrack for our giggles And the lottery we’ve supposedly won Though I still question if I could be enough Or if you are Or if or if or if... We pass out. And despite myself, I dream ( you are conspicuously missing, though your hand rests gently on my thigh) Instead, I am soaring through those trees Above it all and onto the night sky Like a Chagall Angel Ready to blow a trumpet, blast it loud Charging Gabriel So strong Michael drops his sword And Azrael wakes the dead. I look back at you, us Sleeping And crave that slumber Crave what is to come So I climb back into my skin With hope for a me, honest to me For once.
