2-22/B Little Fur Bro

little fur bro,
so chill by the fire,
why do you have to go?
little fur bro?

you speak of places you've been,
as if they were coffee in your mug,
you speak of places you've been,
as if you'd return to being been again,
maybe,

tonight, though,
there is the fire, and smoke,
beer and boys, but not the kind
of boys you're thinking about,
boys who have been about,
boys who have seen more
than the fire, and smoke,
in the night, unfurl
within your hands,
fire, smoke, earth,
tonight,

like home,
home, you carry with you,
within your hands, unfurling,

why do you have to go,
 little fur bro,
so chill by the fire,
why do you have to go?

you remind us,
the boys who have been about,
of home, unfurled in your hands,

-home.
