Here's my two cents:

we wasted time and dirtied ourselves
looting the ghost town, some imaginary place

our kiss, the aftertaste

the nightdance hickeys she left

the only problem is
i'm not from around here and she ages every moment

You see- i do allow myself the luxury of dreaming
but i missed the train;
she left, one ticket in her purse
a folded letter

repentance

and those old dreams, the dreams without form

---

I missed the train.
So all but a handful of words here are from titles from the gallery of cristinewakesuphappy, I asked for people to let me poke through their works and write titlepoetry (sorta) for these last few days of NaPo (was getting lazy and brainburnt) and she was kind enough to volunteer. (Thanks so much!)

I liked the idea of the title of the first one; it seemed to fit the concept/project well and so I carried it over. I'm having a lot of fun doing this so I might continue a series of these past the end of NaPo with this if there is any interest out there for me to do so.
