Blue 4 --- Dust
February 27, 2010
when i was made of stone,
thirty-seven light-years ago,
i forgot your name all of twice
in the month of December.
you talked to me about
[gosh, i can't recall---]
the sounds inside the wood,
and you left bits of dust
in the empty paper cups;
never considerate enough
to take your own dust
with you---
and you left.

Wow, thank you! =]
I'm glad you liked it... I try to pinch the thoughts in the backs of people's heads... the strange phrasing is exactly what I regurgitate from my brain, haha.
