lyrics

Panting with malice

You absently point out

The witches in the window of that house


Your written word became

a corridor of doubt

Slippery with soap and water,

rushing like lambs to the slaughter



spend the whole autumn December chasing bliss

Hand slammed in the car door

thinking ‘anything but this’

months are rotting by

Like ether teeth

And all the things you missed

are piling up like laundry

In the corner

You wish you could have warned her


Waxing and waning, Mooring and unmooring when

It started raining, the windows closed all by themselves

Feinting and feigning, in telling it creates itself

Just stop complaining, we need you back before the twelfth


The shifting distance

from her to your window

Is caught between the rhythms that you know


All of your could- haves

And glistening could-have saids

Are rushing down the gutter in your head
