Sheets

As my head rests 
on your sleeping back 
I begin to question 
certain laws of nature 
and the actual shape 
of the Earth. 

There is a need now 
for renaming a few 
stars in our sky, 
we could use numerology 
or Esperanto. 

If book burnings 
will make room for 
the two of us 
then I’m all for them. 

I tuck the sheets around you. 
Entire religions have been 
based on less.
