Second

We are both second
s apart, thrown together
for minutes a day.
The space next to first or
the time it takes for

Hope to evaporate
from my childish daydreams.
Doodling playgrounds for my
invisible companions.

For a second I thought
for a second thought to
become primary – it’s not
as hard as you thought.

It takes a lot
to smile these days.

For a smile it takes
a lot these days.

Do you ever read quickly, or skim, and see words that aren't there? Maybe you see an 'x' and immediately connect 'x' to 'sex'.

We are both second
s apart, thrown together
for minutes a day.
The space next to first or
the time it takes for

I saw kiss.
