Landing
Landing
i know i spend most of my time
jumping out of my skin
while you are cool
like some black freighter
but i harbor things
too
like you disrupt some waters
we are
swings
we are
watching a black cat
chase leaves
and
we are
people swinging on us
we are
something in the backyard
creaks
the chains
swing and creak
i am
jumping off
the swing seat
you are
making the shadow
we land
in

I’m happy your landing was made of a shadow. I have seen several nasty crashes over the back tilted swing at my grandparents’ home.
lol
