Bound By Symmetry

Warren Heiti, untitled

poetryeater:

I want to be
in Texas, asleep
in the passenger seat of your
nineteen seventy-two sky-blue
Cadillac, the windscreen hypnotized
by horizon, the rear-view
by your eyes, their roan-brown
focus, the careless
freckles on your cheeks,
the breeze sight-reading
a scarred bass clef,
your left hand in your curls,
your bare foot on the gas,
your skin resonant
with fading light, Nina Simone
on the radio and the rain
starting warm on my arm, the way
you play piano, scattering
a handful of dice
on a wood surface,
every note, one side
of five silences.

   Warren Heiti and my best friend Kait have never met, but this poem is about her all the same.
