February

We give our ghosts the names of The months they died in
I drench my ache in turtle pond The headlights knight me Poseidon

We'd dance around the gym
We'd lay down so sweaty
I miss your flailing limbs
Your curiosity

Bruce called my dad Benjamin That never was his name
I drowned out my shaking house With computer games

The holidays brought fighting
Like Noah brought the flood
I've got skin so that thick that
Bugs forsake the blood

My dad never let me say
That I loved him more
A competition darling
Ain't what love is for

The art is already in the room
You just have to find it
God you're such a dork
Love I've never ever minded
I've never minded

I've
Never
Minded
