Three Poems
Blue
for a year I wore blue
almost exclusively
so we first locked eyes
over my sky blue t-shirt
in the heat I broke
the cotton sky with dark
cloud-like patches. over time
the neck and hems faded
close to white
I wore it once when we fucked
but never knew how he felt about that
I always got a lot from clothes.
liked how he slept
in a rough polo shirt
with the buttons undone
how he covered up
instead of using SPF.
