If i had another life
i would choose this one -
all messy and ridiculous
with the clutter of bones and bills and love.
i would walk head-on
into the magical mayhem
of my teenagers' angst
and the moods of marriage -
all the time watching my life unravel
in both anguish and awe.
No one would save me
and i would not dawn a cape
or make a brilliant name for myself
but i would have you
quietly snoring next to me,
and everything that our laying together made
would be brimming over
always seeming to bang at the door
at every door
almost unbearable
the fullness
the constancy
the living
of this mad and wonderful life.
