September 22

This girl who's bday is
Due tomorrow.
She times blowing the
Candles at exactly 6pm.

Cuts cake exactly half 
So that, the day and
The night are equally 
Split in half.

She's obsessed about 
This day, maybe 
Possessed. Equinox 
It is she says.

Half of her 'should
Have been height',
Confused about cutting 
Her boyfriend laterally 

Or vertically to call
Him her better half.

The stuff she explains 
Sometimes pervades,
Halfwit of the humans.
So she writes verses 

Like they got a half-life.
Never-ending, infinite,
Almost finished,
Yet something left.

Half you get, half you
Can't. There's always half 
And half of something as
It's equinox.
