September

the man burns
I brush my teeth
the wind blows
my friends sleep

I comb my hair
the birds could make nests
the wind blows
I wonder when it will rest

the moon's still high
the moon will set
when the sun rises
I will get

onto my bike
to ride to the man
what's left of him
I'll get what I can

I have kissed a boy
I have kissed a man
I am ready to be
whatever I am
