the baker's daughter

Angela
the artsy girl
down the hall
can't tell you much
about her 
but what she knew 
about me
could fill at least
a thousand ears

Angela
kept birthday candles
in a jar
by her door
she'd light one
whenever I'd come around
then she'd spit
on her burnt fingers, cussin'
yeah, well that's enough outta me

Now...
"Tell me what
you are
by what you wish for,
bear claw,
Are you
the icing
or
the cake?"

i don't like eggs but you knew this already i know you're thinking such a terrible waste but it's not, you see i'm feeding them to the dog she loves them just as much as i know she loved you and the way you walked her as if every single thing she sniffed mattered to you as well sorry, dear pardon my red wine opera crowd violin string tugging (your words) i ramble at breakfast like a fussy percolator but you knew this already morning is when i am most honest and vulnerable i know that's why you left after dinner oh god dammit you i miss you so much what i did before us is a mystery and what i do now is insanity i'm frying up eggs just to smell them again and to perhaps coax you down, from wherever you are for breakfast did you know i believe that there is still a ghost of a chance Rene Foran ~  April 2011 photo by Tess Kincaid for Magpie Tales click for more info
