Nonsense Or Not

image

The macabre light burns the pillows from my eyes
And I pile all the princesses in bed
Just because it’s raining doesn’t mean we have to sleep
The sky is the dress I look up a little sheepishly

I flipped a dollar bill and called it in the air
I left a pink message at the restaurant
When you finally appeared the dust had settled
The underwire of the night was about to dig in

And I don’t know if it’s nonsense or not
Because whichever direction I select
We end up at the same place

A swashbuckling evening in puddles
Conspired to fasten glory and fame
I powered the princesses with solar energy
And a size extra medium pancake battery

Swept the tenses I will have been using
Or having had used once
Or upon the usingness of what the use was
Under a rug for under a dollar

So the poem ended but was late
Because it was delayed and interfered with
By belaboring the point as long as possible
Which somehow all means I love you
