I have a fear;
I'm afraid of an idea
That I had when you were away.
It was borne of doubt,
And raised by absence.

I have a fear;
I'm afraid that hearts are blackboards.
Did you write my name on yours?

I have a fear;
I'm afraid of chalk mortality.

I have a fear;
I'm afraid of your finger.
Has it cleansed your blackboard of my name?

I want to publish scenes
And rage against machines
I want to pierce my tongue,
It doesn't hurt, it feels fine......
