What if you and I were best friends
What if we laid, belly-up
In a sweater of stifling prairie grass
And I plucked pearl blossoms
Out of the walls of straw
And placed them in your tall hairWhat if you grew horns
And I grew antlers
The pair of oddities we always once were
And we roamed the endless underbrush
Until our hooved feet gave way to footprints
fleeing the sand
Where the tide will continue to sweep us
back and forth
Until one of us cannot take it and either
swims to shore
or drowns.
