Like Billy Budd Or Cyrano De Bergarac

Son, Ambulance

You came by yourself but you left in a train. Following 
close to whatever is in front of you. The rails lay in 
their beds from Boston to Maine. And they trick 
themselves...they dream about waking up. So we fold like 
paper. Into the desk's top drawer, something I was writing.
 Into a tunnel's dark mouth, boxes have disappeared.
But we laughed out loud for each one we never opened. So 
now the Poets can guess at what we might have had - for all
 that loveliness my page is still just snow. So I follow 
your footprints, fill buckets with tears. And with that hot
 water I will make tea for you. Now you say that you're 
sick, but I think you're just bored of my jumbled words so 
inarticulate.
But you told me one time we were two twisted vines, green 
and inseparable. But that sturdy of a weave just isn't 
possible. So I will change my name, mm-hmm. You can pretend
 you never knew me and we'll fill up our floors with the 
discarded clothes, a skirt pulled from under my bed, 
something I loved on you.
Can you tell by my face? 'Cause I think that it shows. It 
is confusing here, it feels like I'm in a fog.
