Never Never

I’m too much,like a box full of old memoriesyou cannot movewithout getting someone to help you.I’m the music way too loudout of a speeding car that’s passingthrough for one day and it’s ruinedfor that moment I am there.I am the rain that fallsat the worst times and my minimumhas always been a storm you can’tget […]

Linger

The windows all are broken outof a beat up van abandoned in the desertand the scorpions are already moved in.There’s a spaceship in the living roomand the grandparents don’t knowwhat to do but keep on saving moneyin their pillow cases.That old stallion won a hundred racesstuck on both ends of the oddsand met the gods […]

Promised Land

I don’t care if I get rained onthis day was meant to take its timeoutside where we’re allowed to smokeand choke on all the words we try to analyze.I’m fine with being stupid for the fun of it.A clown without its makeup on,just another person walking down the street.I think she’s far more beautiful with […]
