left side of my brain

there's a window in my room and a sun inside my head. take me to texas. take me to maine. take me to melting snow in july. there's a roof over my head and a basement in my room. take me to texas. take me to western wyoming any spring. there's a grill on the porch and a chicken in the freezer and no a/c on this block. fan per room blowing hot air and you take cues from the dogs and just sit as slowly as you can. palms sweat on the keyboard. sweet taste. there's a neighbor next door and they have new grass from austria. strong from centuries even. water everyday this grass and i wonder why it doesn't rain. i don't want to water our yard because i think if the earth wanted it to be green then it would rain for us. want water and ice though. lemonade and ice though. there's a chair underneath me and a hope inside my head. flowers have bloomed and shriveled already. our flower. take me to texas. take me to costa rica and throw me down the river and teach me to roll my r's. there's a pen in my hand and a pin in my spine and the pin is keeping me from writing my words. flashing my smile three days a week for them and taking it home with me. the days are so long i'm already nervous about winter. stay away. take me to endless summer.
