Im drunk

Half a heart

There is a little boy,
On television that only has half a heart

He says,
“ I wish I had a whole heart,
like my mum and dad.”

He says it with a beautiful smile
That could warm the world

He has a hot mother.
I remember that.
a hot cunt of a mother.

I open a beer after his scene
And run a bath

The radio plays swing.

I dance with my girl
She is wearing her pajamas

but
im naked.

We dance quietly.
With bare feet.
Together
On the floor boards of my home.
With the television still
Playing
In the other room

she leaves me alone

With the swing

And the radio

And an a world of guilt

And the wish

That i only had half a heart,
Too.
