dreaming is not a state
washington is a state
dreaming is a lifestyle
a romanticism of earwax
and bottles of wine that look like
elegance
but were intended to make you forget
what you look like

love is not a phenomenon
megan fox is a phenomenon
love is in the sole of your shoe
and your fingernails and especially
your belly button

fear is not temporary
nail polish is temporary
fear is embedded
in the floor you crawled on
and
the brand of cologne he wore

dreaming is not a state
love is not a phenomenon
fear is not temporary

a poem about the strange evolution of common thoughts and the defiancy of definitons.
