another soon love yes another soon for now listen what we
have is red—most often fragile red sours white—

but with you with you it springs red and sings red
and stayed red and really bloomed didn’t it

did one day bloom
early and maybe did blossom

grey
to our surprise

but still you sang the song with me and drank the drink
with me still early for love keep

still early for now love drunking and i’ll keep singing for now green
songs to the tune of

sayittomeagain
and say it to me justlikethat

and red
bottles turned green will turn red again and you’ll

drink my heart
three-seasoned love and promise
