for Shanell Adderley
I want your eyes, full of fireflies
your heart, how fast it must be going
at such times
for now, hold on to the rest of you
the rest may be required later
fireflies, quickly beating heart
start with these
a hug for now, what’s left, hold
a rest, arrest, I need a dress, an address,
before I could ask for your hand
before I could wash your feet
brush your teeth, we're going out
we'd have to brush our feet
it's been raining off and on
