May it never be done

May it never be done. May the olives languish forever atop your pasta. May dogs wink and italian waiters sneak round to beg a mouthful under the table - May it never be done!

The things you fear in the bushes, wet, catty and feral black, may they never call at your windows to sPOOOK--
May it never be done.

Buzz, tap, whistle, splat, tap, scribble, wiggle, there will always be work.
May it never be done.

Rain * Needs spilling *
Heart * Needs painful palpitating *
Pale turkeys * Need basting *
Need shaving *
Need legs *

But It won't get done.

As he has commanded, it is so.

Never, is a long time.

Never dreams of running with feet trapped underwater.
Never wants to flee or fly or GET THERE-
but the water and sand will Never
let go.

because he doesn't
never want to let you go.
you want the last sip of coffee so badly,
you want to end the date,
this awkward moment seems to go on forever.
