I bought some grey paint at your new store,
you call it dreary. I call you cold.
you eyes are sending shivers up through my bones.
So I pressed the pause button and stained my burgendy tears a beautiful moth color.
That's what you wanted.
Quiet and dull, just like you.
Sit still, look pretty.
Music seethes in my lungs
acid on my throat
wash it down with black tea.
Hot and dark.
Like your eyes
Now your in my stomach
watching me.

You wrote a poem once called Canvas and I though it was completely awesome.  I think you've done it again.  I actually did make a print out of Canvas and I think I'm going to do the same with this.  Nice work.

Oh! I've missed reading your stuff.  (my own fault - I haven't been here much lately). Anyway, I'm glad I found this poem.  Loved it.
