coming down
from that New York City high
for a while
those were diamonds
floating in the night skies
for a while
the colors were brighter
for a while
it didnt matter that it was a crooked smile
just then it snowed
and I pulled the white blanket
over my skin
cuddled in
fluffy clouds
rolled around naked
in a bed of marshmellows
but the dumptrucks
started their engines,
tangled the white sheets
and the snowplows
pushed aside what was left:
a dull grime
so tomorrow
i'll be walking in that very same grey slush.
