Day 20: lost in space

cigarettes under starlight you, me, and our bad habits create an air of mystery i float halfway to saturn before you loop a finger in the strap of my mary jane and guide me back to hover five inches above the ice melt my lips are a fancy chocolate and your mouth makes a polite pillow by the time my toes touch the ground i’ve melted, melted

cigarettes under starlight

you, me, and our bad habits
create an air of mystery
    i float halfway to saturn before
you loop a finger
  in the strap of my mary jane
and guide me back to hover
  five inches above the ice melt
    
 my lips are a fancy chocolate
    and your mouth makes a polite pillow 
 by the time my toes touch the ground
   i’ve melted, melted
