lyrics

certain ones of you
stood decomposing,
atrophied

but something wasn’t wrong
with no one naming it

must have been an
honest line delivered
memorized

someone felt it once
maybe i did too

is it all
as it was before?

stop toeing the line
that you drew
wide eyed and wearier

circles of you left
like acrobats in
slanted shoes

but something wasn’t wrong
with no one naming it

sauntered over, velvet
like the king I never knew

said this must be done
before you finished it

is it all
seeming steadier?

stop toeing the line
that you deemed
so tried and regular

they say distance
is all that you need for a view
but that fire
is known in the heat of its use

and this shading
is seen in the grains of its blues
and what violence
to see it so wholesome and true
