Street Signs

Whenever you’re hanging out there
Know that it is for you I care,
With permutations of warning
My heart is not for your warming.

Dear Perpetual sister with gifts,
I hope you read those signs outside
before coming to prick my heart.
I will not repeat my heartbeat.

Just In case you meet that bridge sign,
Know that waters used to flow here,
Tears had occupied my hearts slum
Until I built my flyover.

Zebra crossing is for my ex
Bump ahead is for your soft breasts
That hill sign is for our climax.
Curvy sign is for juicy nights.

Whenever you’re hanging out there
Know that it is for you I care,
These street signs will guide your traffic
As my heart reveals them to you.
