don't always know

up against and in front of
a wall don’t know what
she is waiting for
her hugs just aren’t the same
its simple
she acts like she doesn’t know
this is her practice
hard to understand what all of this is

up against the wall
see it all fear the fall
wind nearly tears my hair
out as a withdrawal
finally cooled midday
to midnight
calling out to her
sleeplessness

train going the wrong way
on the tracks barreling
toward oblivion
the birds are flying in place
as if they need the practice
shiver as she calls to know
trust the judgment
but still not sure
what I am thinking…
