Appleseeds

Sat on the dryer reading the book
while I fill up the green cl__ with tub in the basement
and how you would pick out the splinters in my hand
from the old wooden rails in the house.
Then we'd fall asleep on the couch.

And when we wrote down my thoughts on some paper
and folded them up
and sent them down the river
like, two little boats fragile and keeping delusions afloat.

Oh, what was it that you wrote?
ohhh what was it that you wrote? Mmmmm.

You chewed up the core of an apple,
you spit out the seeds.
you were trying to grow a tree,
so the yard would have shade and
we could stay out in the heat.
just so you could sit next to me.
ohhh just so you could sit next to me.
ohhh just so you could sit next to me.
oh oh oh ohh just so you could sit next to me..
