the best thing about

the best thing about
living near the pool is the
option to not get

into it whenever we
don’t feel like it, just like living

in the city, in
the center of town, is to
say no, thanks when guests

line up for the greatest in
architectural designer

statuesque extra-
vaganza. we can take a peek,
drop by, anytime

in the color
no, tucked into
the alternating folds
of yes
and YES,
rolled into the note

the key of
yes, please
hold me as i
split atoms

don’t stop saying

don’t stop saying
no –
include with it
a little
kiss, a certain
guidance –
throw in a raffle,
we can all
be winners
