Our Understanding

by Megan Aries - Not entered

Spawled on my floor, I have so many other 
things to do, a paper, some calls, but
all I really care about is you.
Robert is crooning at me, speaking of his pictures.
I am jealous, I have none. I threw them all
away during a spring cleaning session in October.
My thoughts are grey. It looks like rain.
I'm thinking...if I could sing the song of me, 
who would I serenade? Would it be you, with your 
apathetic, drug induced smile, not really listening,asking
about what the bass like is going to sound like...Or you,
With your words that remind me of my favorite porcelain
tea set that I'm always trying to recreate. Thats what
I see you as, your beauty compensates for the understated
struggle working with you causes. 
Or maybe to myself. A reideration of everything
I ever knew. A double spouted pitcher with nothing
to pour but applied science and art history.
