Absinthe by Beth Orton

edgy

you seem (to have zapped)
the

life

out of me,
popping my fathomless dreams
like

helium balloons

on long paper strings.
i

took your picture

at
a park
under a gazebo
and

we let them go,
(floating)

up into the old
coconut sky,

revealing less

(and less)
about

the poison inherent
in

a glorious day
of

sunshine

without proper air...
