Cracks

 

I built a window

inside your eye

I set a clock to tick

on your insides

I gave priority

to all you wished

I fed your vanity

 

I pulled a baby

out of your hat

revived a dying dog

on your behalf

I interceded

in grave disputes

and that excited you

 

I wait until you come

from where you've been

and then I wait until

you leave again

I'll sit forever then

'til you come back

I'll watch the bones all slip

between the cracks

 

I see you in my yard

I watch you hide

I know you stumble when

there's no porch light

I hear you bark outside

my kitchen door

out by the garbage cans
