but i wish i had a wish
that could come true
and i’d be
satisfied
wishes

i wish i wish i wish
i could make consumerism
and capitalism
truly passé
just from saying so
in a poem only i will probably see
perhaps it is so
for me
and i can spread it outwards
from my words and experiences
into my daily life and conversations
and someday
i’ll have helped
make it so

i would like to learn how to be less careful
less risk-averse
more risk-taking
more prone to
having fun
letting loose
and just
go

i wish
i could see
through my glasses
i wish
they weren’t smudged
with fingerprints
and face oils
and life
i wish
i wasn’t so hungry
i couldn’t concentrate
and so sleepy
i’m expecting to snuggle
into the soft body of this poem
and relax until it’s time to drive
on home
