co-writing

i put pants on

and a new pair of socks

walk down stairs

sit and read brautigan

drink coffee

madeline meets me to write

i have written with other people before

but mostly i am private in my endeavours

i have never written with ex lovers

one time i went to a show with one but it felt like the flip side of a dream

‘she says, ‘what do you want to write about?’

‘can we write about my new socks?’

‘uhhh’

‘i really love the colourful design in the foot but i am disappointed with how the leg of the sock is just blue so that when i wear shoes no body can tell how beautiful they are’

‘you should wear flip flops’

and that is how our song

‘flip flop slick socks’ was written

i think it is going to be a hit
