    The Floor And Its Meaning

    The good girl,  
    the 9-to-5 girl,
    the one who has more skills
    than she’ll ever admit,
    the one who could take more responsibilities
    if she’d only wish,

    is on the floor,

    lying half-naked,
    Joy Division in the air,
    writing poems that are bad
    but that matter to her.

    An Istrian liquor,
    wild pear,
    keeps the juices flowing,
    nothing more to bear.

    Scented candles are burning,
    flickering little fires,
    blinding lights
    in this obscurity.
    A refuge
    from the scorching sun.

    The floor has meaning.
    The floor is freedom
    to do
    what you’re not supposed to,
    what you shouldn’t,
    but you want to.
