BRIGHTNESS THROUGH THE WAFFLES OR THE WIDENESS OF THE WINDOWS I LIKE THE VIEW FROM HERE I COULD BE JUST ANYWHERE MORNING, IN KINGSTON, NEARBY THE CLOISTERS, OR SINGING THROUGH THE TUNNEL IN ZURICH
O! BLOW ON THIS MEMORY LIKE HOT DINNER
I MISS IT, BUT NOT ALL OF IT I CUT MY HAIR SHORT OVER AND OVER REASSURE ME PLEASE WILL WE FIND IT THERE, WHERE WE PUT IT LAST? THE LIGHTS ARE OFF AND NOBODY’S HOME WHAT CAN I COUNT ON
I AM SHOPPING FOR CHOCOLATES ALONE, IN A FOREIGN CORNER STORE NOW, ALMOST THREE YEARS PRIOR O, BOY I GUESS I’M BACK TO CRYING AGAIN IT’S NOT THAT I’VE LOST YET WELL, HERE’S THE BRIDGE ARE WE CROSSING IT? AND WHEN I PICK UP THE PHONE RING! RING! WILL IT BE KETCHUP OR ARGUMENT? I AM HELD WITH MY OWN HANDS: HAM FISTS AND THIGHS FOR SLAMMING SAY, WHAT’D YOU HAVE IN MIND? WHAT WERE YOU PLANNING?

CONTACT ME IN MY DREAMS, I AM FORGETTING ALL THE WAYS I COULD HURT YOU, MOTHER DEAR, WHO KEEPS YOU QUIET?
SHARP TONGUE, SOFTEN DRAIN THE POISON CALL MORE OFTEN ARE YOU SAFE AND SOUND?
CONTACT ME IN MY DREAMS, YOU ARE KNEELING ON DAMP DIRT, POISED OVER A GARDEN BED AND THE FEAR OF PEOPLE LEAVING IS NO LONGER A BURDEN ON YOUR HEART
UNCONDITIONAL LOVE’S STILL A HORRIBLE IDEA, BUT I WILL BRING YOU YOUR PEAR WHEN THE DAY ARRIVES

THERE’S STILL A BANISTER ALONG MY DREAMING MIND SO, WHEN I SLIP MY HEAD BETWEEN THE UPRIGHTS THERE IS AN UPSHOT CAUGHT SNUG IN A BLUEPRINT MADE BY WHITE HANDS
& I STILL CLIMB THIS NARROW PASSAGE CAKE IN MY CRADLE FOR THE WOMAN UPSTAIRS OOH, WILL SHE LOVE ME? OOH, WILL SHE LOVE ME NOT? CURLED ICING ON TOP READS “PROXIMITY”
SO, YR IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL, HUH? WE CAN SIT WITH THAT, BUT WHILE THOSE THOUGHTS MARINADE, THE SHIT DON’T PAUSE; THE SHIT DON’T STOP
THE ILLUSION IS TO THINK YR THE ONLY ONE WITH SOME COMMON SENSE OVER HERE! EYES ON THE PRIZE: YOUR CLOCK, YOUR CLOG, APPOINTMENTS & DISAPPOINTMENTS KEEPING YOU BUSY

TWO GIRLS STAND BEFORE ME AND BOTH OF THEM WILL STAY
IN THE RUNNING NO BAGS TO PACK WHEN YOU’RE ALREADY HOME THERE IS NO COMPETITION IN THIS VERSION, NO ONE’S LIVELIHOOD COMES AT THE EXPENSE OF ANOTHER’S THERE IS NO EITHER/OR
IT IS THEIR JOB TO KEEP US COUNTING NUMBERS
1: STILL THE LONELIEST NUMBER AND OF COURSE I BELIEVE IT WHEN I’M CHOPPING IN THE KITCHEN WHEN I’M CRYING AT THE MOVIE HOUSE ONE VIEWER IN THE THEATER LIMITS OF “ONE AND ONLY” THERE’S NOT ANOTHER LIKE IT IF YOU LET IT

YOU ALL LOOK THE SAME! SORE THUMB, I’M STICKING OUT
COME PLAY ME AGAIN YOUR FINE-TUNED INSTRUMENT AT
YOUR SERVICE ALWAYS BEEN PLACED UNDER RECKONING
YELLOW TULIP, SOFT ON THE EARS MORE, LOUDER I CAN’T
HEAR YOU
AND I THOUGHT IT’S SO EASY FOR A SMALL YELLOW CHILD
TO VANISH. THAT THE HARD WORK, THE REAL WORK THAT
REQUIRES INNOVATION IS TO BE KNOWN.
ARE YOU ENJOYING YOUR MEAL? PLATE ME UP ON A PETRI
DISH CAN YOU FIGURE ME OUT? WHAT ARE YOU THINKING
ABOUT?
AT YOUR SERVICE, ALWAYS BEEN WHETHER OR NOT I’M
CLOCKING IN YELLOW TULIP, SOFT ON THE EARS MORE,
LOUDER I CAN’T HEAR YOU
YOU ALL LOOK THE SAME! I DOUBT MY ABILITY IN HOT-
HEADED DEFENSE JUST ANOTHER TESTAMENT YOU LOOK
THE SAME YOU’RE NOT MY FAMILY INVISIBLE PAIN MY TRICK IS VANISHING
