As/Is

darling, can you guess my name is?

How goes it? Hello, how
are you - aquarium glug glug,
slur, stagger -
hello again - spiral staircase or escalator -
my dear Euphoria?

Carried away,
on a roll - something something,
i guess, gone out,
the oblivion of a smile; it's heresy,
with only a few pints in,

seem to be smoke
to rise this-a-way from that
tyrannosaurus gray cloud,
this-a-way to come to meet you -
your stare stuck a corkscrew in my chest.

So what's going on? Take your shoes off,
dream a bit ... come unbuckle
my eyebrows - come,
play twister: darling, can you guess
my name is?
