Unrelated Thoughts I Had When Gay Marriage was Ruled Constitutional. A Poem by Amy and Hannah.

Life is like
A summer storm
Like sugar cookies and grenades
Sugar cookies taste good
Until you add grenades

Pillow kisses come to me
From crappy cinematographic scenes
In a worn down cassette player
It follows me to the back room
Now I sleep

The Rubix cube
Tumbles onto asphalt
It can never be solved

Shoes line the closet floor
Each steps a mile farther
Than the pick up truck
Out back
Worn
Like our souls
As we sit
Watching the road

A pipe that goes straight through the center
And always ends up right back here
The core was supposed to lead
Two mountain peaks and not be a circle or sphere

The deputy sits defeated
In the basement of his mother’s house
An improvement from the old SUV he used to live out of
The computer flashes images
And soon he must go back to work
