Know the Saurus

i'm just a little boy
in a littler body.

rocks
on my window

planes
on the hill
we never got to 1000

half sprawled
nestled against your neck
an arm over a chest
a leg over a thigh

you're sick
and i bring soup

mulder and scully
solved the eternal summer

the little girl knows who you are
and the woman at the directory

yelle
twice

the kids are in egypt
wake up,
dino

buffalo blasts, and
a chili burger
but don't cut the top bun in half

never happier
for a nosebleed
because you came in
with those towels

not enough seats
at dinner

eight stories up
we slept above trees
by a screen window
and never felt safer

the zombies
won't eat our neighbors

the anteater
the blanket
and the pants

you gave me a family
a home
a future

even if it were a dream

the heart
may have broke
but never emptied.

i miss us dearly,
i loved you since day one
and never stopped.
