love songs
by hut in the rain

we lay on the bridge of the noon day sun
watching two streams flow into one.
you covered your face with your birkenstock
to shield your eyes.
i sat up and found my stomach
covered in dirt
my feet
melted in dirt
my hands
dirt.
and you were dirty too.
i laughed
and you smiled.
you drove me back to your house.
turning the car around
so i could see
an open field of silver grass.
you sat still
as i hit you with an empty water bottle
to the radiobeat.
then you found another bottle
gulped it all down
and we became a human drumset.
there are too many love songs
not enough love, we think.
