vaseline intensive care

am i in that sky?

do you scream to me every night

through torn sheets and the whirring of the fan?

is it as hard for you to contemplate

those unmentionable words?

i never claimed to be a challenge

i'm easy to read, like "goodnight moon"

but you're the gold-bound literature --

i struggle to comprehend,

let alone strive to become

dim eyes and chapped lips

birthday candles flash the spark

i remember...

i'll probably sleep through it tonight
