A tremendous amount
Of accountability one can almost
Hear it ringing across the chasm
A coulee calls back
Reeling
“Just live your life!”
Who cares?
Write it down
Stick it in an envelope
Lick it and seal it
Over the pond across the globe
Pick me up
Set me back down
My heads on fire
About to blow really
Do everything right
Still get it wrong
Do it wrong
Maybe get closer
She’s shrieking out on edge
Storming down the door
Time can’t get it back
Counter clockwise old school
Headlights in his eyes
Fight and torment till we die
Look under the hood
See if he can find anything good
Against the odds
Barrel back or don’t
Maybe an instrument to
Activate her voice
Loud louder loudest
Miss the kiss just a wish
To find hisself again
Saturday night almost
Lights out but stay up late to
Make up for the wait
Work work work
That’s all we do
Screw the rules
List writer box checker
Doesn’t go according to plan
Whatever man
Did everything he can
No follow through at the end
Makes for a tall glass of
What the shit is wrong with you
Again and again let it go
Amen
