A POEM READ BY ADEBHAYOUR AT LOUDTHOTZ OPEN POETRY READING IN FEBRUARY, 2011

The numbers that make up for teen

The breeze and its gossip

The numbers that make up 14

The heels I search for by the side walks

Hoping you’re not on the next bike

In hanging screens I see you

Through speakers I’m humbled

By these people making a living out of your character

Then, I hurry out searching on the next bike hoping you’re not in the next cab

Frustrated, I searched even deeper

Turned the T’s away from the ighs”

Devoured the B’s and the reast

Deprived the L’s from the ips”

*sighs*

I love you so much

Buh I just havnt met you yet
