METAPHORS

Yes!

I woke from peculiar dreams--

a tv set that wouldn't shut off
Mike ______ leaving his recording equipment in my closet--

by a throbbing ache in my right index finger knuckle

It has a bandage on it from a cut of
mysterious origin

I hope it's not arthritis

There's a cute blonde girl
here

I wish I had the nerve
to ask her name

And spend time with
her

But I don't

I sure don't

We're smoking cigarettes like sexual metaphors
it's a strange attraction

I'm busy tonight

And I think

I don't want her to get in my
way

Pen ink is getting viscous
must be running out

More metaphors

How will I ever get
beyond

Metaphors?
