I

don't want to take your heart,
and i don't want to be history.
i don't want to be the west coast,
and i don't want to be the northern lights.
i just want resolution.
i just want understanding.
i just want a wrist watch that doesn't work.
i want a minute hand that ticks back and forth
between 3 and 5.
i want a breath of morning air off of rainy cement
and i don't want anything anymore.
