Napowrimo Day 8: For Damon

 You put the gay in stargaze

The big dipper is flipping

On its handle come springtime I don't remember

If it's to the north or south

The corners of your mouth and your tender

Smile and I know that I've already

Told you about the stars and they shine and planets twinkle

--Mars is in the western sky but fuck me if I can find it. 

In the winter Orion drew me home

Each night but now that spring's come

My inner compass is swinging without

A magnet to draw it north but of course

I'm lost without you and in the daytime there's no stars

And in the springtime I should be in love but

Here we are. Lost and alone.
