My Best Mistake

if only i could have slipped & fallen
into the pumpkin patch of your eyes
all so wonderful our hearts
beating together like frazier & ali

i’ve said it before & i’ll say it again

but of so only fallen into deadlier
& the eyes all too
secret slipped our smarter stone
not only hearts but the ruin if
oh so smarter in the patch
but in wonderful if could a tomb

the best mistake i ever made was
putting pen to paper & then
hoping against hope
i could break down that wall of slate
& use these words to escape the grave

i will make this mistake again & again
riding the lightning train into the last good night

i’ve said it before & i’ll say it again
what else can i do?
