NaPoWriMo, Day One, Poem One

First one. Comments are always appreciated.


For ----

After years of carelessness,
I now fuck with all
the reckless abandon
seen in safecrackers.

You saw a hand to hold
when all the frolickers
were mistaking me for something
tall enough to hang coats on.

The law of centrifugal force
never mentioned that a spinning body
can leave the axis if its moving
too slowly for its liking.

I turned you too slowly,
hoping to hear something click.
