hello stranger, farewell my love

Rob Hageman

(blues for blondes)
as your scent
our home was
built on slowly
fades & touches
of your hungry
lips & eager fingers
are washed of my
longin' skin by these
warm spring rains

 as this soft spring
breeze carries our
cold harsh words
filled with disgust
beyond the bright
lights of our paradise
i can hear distant
whispers of a wise
old tree: hello stranger

please say farewell
to my love for me

i'm a child hidden in an poet,hiding behind a dancer, covered by a singer, in the shadow of a painter, accompanied by a musician & an invisible actor, all compressed in frog crooning "kiss me, kiss me" more…
