Hooda Helami At The Stream Of Consciousness

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The top is up there

somewhere

but I am not

looking

I am bottom-feeding

after dinner

of this, that,

and the other thing

 

Cherries nowhere

near the middle

but there is

an apple

in my eye

 

Frogs croaking

lemons soaking

the sun 

laughing

with yesterday

 

Today is

within inches

of another

yesterday

 

Some call it midnight

I call it 

Henry

but Oh

there must be a twist

 

Already kissed

on someone else's

mouth

pointing south

 

Toward crime

but that is

the last rhyme

and the biggest

rock

***
