It was only an invitation-
just a firefly of words
blinking in your direction
and passing
It was only an invitation-
don’t fret too much
you weren’t expected to show
up in my garden
It was only an invitation-
I shouldn’t wither so
in the heat of your
unseeing.
It’s an impossible
request
to set aside your drink
and turn
Please, say nothing.
It was only
the life of me.
