(2013)
this being we are, delights in all things, yes but is held breathless
they really do know how to shove something up your ass like
yes, there is a gap between us always has been now it is
man, it’s hard to come down from impossible hopes seemingly
root it out the tiny bit left that says someone’s in charge not you. don’t let it live
yes, darling you should come & take care of me, someone has to, & you
if ever someone is my dearest ear who hears my truth as theirs
of the things that make me become better only music is unlike surgery
here’s a story. it may even be true. where i come from nothing ever sucks, so i
was all stupid. you weren’t that entertaining. i find it all only sad now, that
leaning into, not against it. no, decidedly for, yes, always that, no matter
we go walking around walking all over this town nothing ever getting us down cause we’re just a couple of clown…
god is unwelcome in suburbia, the cells are too comfortable there, & love rests best under stars.
reflecting on the moment before, would be useful only were it not already perfect.
I understand the tattoo now “VERITAS” on your wrist, only there because it is entirely absent everywhere else.
