The topic was bananas, and I liked it. Unfortunately, I lost the little scrap it was typed on.

The way I typed it below is the way it was written.

the wind is the victim here
our lips of the tongue were
once we admitted it the same
distance from each other no
matter what we were saying
of facts and asking that
the perfect circles get
cured ordered around
and normally i tend
to denounce most
medicine but to
chapped lips
i cede the
conceit
of needing
a lip balm
cure all to
count on the
winter
to ever end
in its warm
middle of
what we
were saying
doesnt hurt
its worth
waiting
for

(I had asked him to wrote me a poem about chapped lips…)
