b'sometimes we\\u2019re stunned into sunlight\\ntoo quick to adjust our eyes\\nstill living by sleepy moonlight flowers\\ntrapped inside our tongues\\nstill taste like each other\\n\\nbut days push envelopes of resistance\\nwe open them dead letters all\\nblank sheets for us to write ourselves\\ninto and out of lies white\\npaper flags of surrender\\n\\nwe\\u2019ve all lost us some things\\nmight as well give \\u2018em away first\\nlighten the bones\\nloosen the ropes\\neverything be all right soon\\n\\na moment in forever means more than\\nan hour to a day like firefly\\novaries they are tiny but mean everything\\nto lightening bugs set on\\nsagging through summer\\n\\nwe\\u2019ve all lost us some things\\nmight as well give \\u2018em away first\\nlighten the bones\\nloosen the ropes\\neverything be all right soon\\n\\nepw 3.27.08 perrysburg, oh'
