ball dropt
and we all froze
ball dropt
and it’s rolling on
ball dropt
i can’t keep on
ball droptÂ
thru fingers
thru hands
past our gaze
and around our heads
“it’s hard for everyone,”
she says to me
as if my story is un-unique
as if it’s just another leaf on the tree
as if it’s just another wrinkle on his forehead
as ifÂ
“i’m sorry”
i hadn’t said
ball dropt
bye bp
