Just five minuets Give me just five minuets To breathe Come up for air Inhale Exhale That stale taste On your tongue A reminder of being young Young enough at least Place mats and play dates and Playmate Behind the gate And swinging higher than anyone Wishing you weren't young Girls you knew you loved A thought so lovely; high above Pushed against the wall of see-through plastic Blowing bubbles Scream for daddy Crab-walk along the poolside lined White tiled SlippingSpillingTilting Trial Water gurgle Swallowed up Blackened bruises Smooth Jazz Music Musing away the blind and unforgettable Blue Bird Burbling Stomach Churning Eyes glaze over and over and over and over and before long it's over.
