      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      The Hole Between Mine and Yours - Christina M. Grey

      Wet

      Floyd and I flied

      I mean flew

      But you seemed to knew

      I mean know

      Through the sky that I ride

      I mean wrote

      On the waves of the nights

      I mean notes

      Surfing words as we float

      I mean flowed

      While the sound filled the bored

      I mean boat

      We were drifting up art

      I mean close

      To the clues of the noose

      I mean knows

      As we melted blue moons

      I mean moans

      Into wise from the wounds

      I mean woes

      We renewed with the tune

      I mean truth

      Ruined times of the new

      I mean youth

      But he left me alone

      with no line

      how to reach him or send

      him a sign

      when I need him but can’t

      seem to find

      where he hides out of sight

      and my mind

      Now I dream of the lane

      I mean loon

      And the day he will soon

      I mean save

      From the guillotine scene

      I mean sane

      And the life of the plight

      I mean plain

      Please return to me, Floyd

      what has fled

      Turn my spaces from white

      into wet

      and remind me of who

      I mean how

      I can swim even when

      I’m without

      -o-

      ode to no one

      I

      as i escape, they're gaining speed

      i feel like prey as they stampede

      they're drooling, hungry for a feed

      they're on my tail and wanting meat

      a bunny running, chaste, around

      surrounded by and scared of clowns

      this circus city tourist hoax

      a park without the rides, a joke

      (the punch line is we're all alone)

      this carnival, this homesick home

      these sideshow freaks and average joes

      or savage beasts and boring foes

      i've yet to meet a worthy beau

      or if i have, he had to go

      II

      so listen, mister, i confide

      my secret: i'm unsatisfied

      i long for something deep inside

      come fill me up with what's implied

      i've fled away from free to find

      a beeline toward the wrong way sign

      on subterranean famous train

      i'm in the railroad's other lane

      i want to be the bird you cage

      just clip my wings and close my range

      enslave and save me, pin me down

      and lock me up. please keep me bound

      and tied to where you hold the key

      i promise i won't try to flee

      if you will stay and be my safe

      i'll have a ball wrapped up and chained

      so find your fire, light my flame

      come ring my bell and say my name

      III

      release me from this hell i'm in

      without a cellmate, celibate

      employ me as your nighttime toy

      your lifetime servant, paid in joy

      i want to be your biggest fan

      your favorite thought, your genie lamp

      your fantasies are my commands

      your hopes and dreams: my maps and plans

      imagine, wish, and then say when

      you'll let me in and under skin

      and i'll begin the endless grins

      remove a trace of former cringe

      just tell me how you like to feel

      i'll make you love it, doubt it's real

      when you say jump, i won't reply

      i'll just surprise you with how high

      i'll master all that you request

      i'll learn it backwards, ace the test

      right when you know that i'm the best

      i'll blow your mind way past
