life is i  c e
reduced to water]

and why not think a little harder
when we all  hate to be bothered

watch and be watched
smile and get lost
all over again

i think i hear doves
(caught in jet engines()
they call love

but im still in this thing till the end
called my d rowsy memory
as ked it where its been

speak in monotone
thats not my own

do i make sense
do i make you sick
do i make sense now..

th ere i go scaring myself behind the wheels
of a dream w ithin  a  fear
the collison im sure
will have no feeling
and its of no importance
to
avoid at all costs
to
stop and look every way possible
   at once

i  jumpED right out of your sin

just
to
come around


again

and
be human blanket

to your un sheltered skin

no longer afraid of the dark or midday shadows nothing so ridiculously teenage and desperate

"Glory remains unaware of my neglected dwelling where alone
I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me."
