An Afternoon With You Lyrics by Nick Piato

Crow

2024

The mosquitos and I share bloody gender secrets
In the all-gender bathroom
The door is rigged automatic
And I must wait out the forced ajar stare
In the shade offered by blob-fish flesh-lockers
Even then
The twist of the lock
Read, vacant to not
Takes an extra push
Are you sure about this one?
It is not the downstairs back hall restroom
It is the handicapped toilet I cried into
Face-first staring contest with the water
I lose and no one heard or saw or knew
But it still is what it is to everyone else
Somehow
When I saw the crow sitting on the speed limit sign
I worried they might become narcs like dogs
Tear torsos for sale or trash, maybe
On the ground beside the mailbox
All down the street
Curbs decorated residential await the arrival of a dumpster
That will park in the lot of apartment buildings
Legless backs rise out of the grass like runged tombstones
Plant string beans and stake them to the poles
Wrap them in vines, adorn them with pods
Thrones for the deer
I lose us from the woods to some strange road
And it echoes in my body
Muscles relaxing, remembering moving forward as unstoppable
I test your recollection
We retrace our path
My questions only prove how differently we see
