underneath your ribs

you promised me
lower-cased wisdom disguised
as bittered genius,
slick sentimental bullshit
to be wrestled with
gripped, squeezed and jettisoned
overboard
like Morrison's horses.

you promised me
a place on your face,
a tiny spot to go unnoticed
until the revelry calls
us home again,
until your mother beats down
our best wishes
and leaves the two of us
quivering in the corner
of your bedroom
again.

you promised me
a poem for every heartbeat

underneath

your

ribs

and I'm still waiting.
