I wish
I could utter to no one in particular
I did something
To shoo away that dire dream
The dream I assumed
No—I denied
To be possible
The dream he knew
was his only reality
That I hadn’t
Simply watched
From my outsized car window
shielded from the poverty
comfortably, in the bubble that shielded me
I couldn’t touch his fear
So I hid in a place—only I recognize
A place where I cradled
His mutilated heart
Where my embrace
Mended his bad memories
For in this world
What we call reality
will never allow me to
merge his soul
with my sympathy
for this bungled but imperative wire
separates us
from meeting
face to face
I only know him
By what the pupil of my lime eyes
charitably
confirm me of
so please
don't think of that black balloon
that keeps you from lifting
think of the day
nobody will feel
the blows of the corrupt
think of
tomorrow

*Special Message: In hopes of a better future- I hope to meet you mystery boy
& i'm sorry for what I know you had to go through today (06-10-07)
I'll never forget you- what you taught me in the brief seconds our eyes met
This one's for you
