How can you breathe
with what you’ve done
The empty place
where what was once was
Look out below death from above
Fear of clear skies
Fear of guns
Fear of blue and white
Fear of blood
Fear of strangers
Fear of dogs
Fear for family
Fear for friends
Fear of greetings
And goodbyes
And the noises that you hear outside
The wall shakes and groans!
This will not hold!
We will bury you
We will forget you

I think I’d look pretty good in that dress
Why don’t we get you out of it
All that I do is tease and suggest
If you want it come and get it let me know
Because you could suck the skin from my bones
It’s worth it not sleeping alone
There’s something in the way your eyes scan across the room
Like at some signal secret to everyone but you
We will all go up in flames and you will laugh right through the blaze
And you ask if i’m afraid but what the hell does it change
I want you
I want you I want you
I don’t feel close to anyone anymore
Confess to the carpet facedown on the floor

You think you’re in love with the girl at register
Because you can’t separate affection from attention anymore
And women your old age just don’t have the passion
You swear you remember you had, a twitch of the lip a brush of the hand
They whisper behind you it’s so fucking sad
You think you’re in love with the girl at the store
Because the dog that waits for you among the broken bottles on your floor
Would show you its teeth if you weren’t the one who was giving it treats
And in it’s quiet longing
You find yourself thinking
I am gonna die like a dog in a hot car
I am gonna die like a dog in a hot car pink tongue cracked from sucking in the warm air

Sink in
Pull out
Push down
Twist
Bleed out
Sacrifice
Your life
For him
His goals
Carve out
Inside
Yourself
Wide enough
To fall in
Whole world
Shrinks down
Pin prick
Of light
Sophia
Mourns her fate
Spilling out
Journal page
Who kept who
Fed and safe
Warm at night
Who has been
Remembered
And why
Oh you know
Happens all the time
It’s not fair
It’s not right
There’s control
Of your life
And there’s them and
A knife

Faces from the past
With names that you forgot
Evoke all these unpleasant
Memories of nothing at all
I know you’re out there somewhere
Writing slogans from
The barricades in bathroom stalls
It’s been like this too long
It’s not enough I need you
Here close enough to touch
The force of bodies clashing
The heat of skin on skin
A synthesis in impact
I want you name on my lips
I want to know you better
I want us to be remembered
This whole town lights up when we meet
From the farms to the factories

You’re working weekends
So your boss can spend his
On vacation
Hitting on cash strapped 20somethings
You sell yourself short
It’s not enough to get by
You never have the time
It’s not enough to get by
You never have the time
At 22 years old
You’ve spent too long in hospitals
And part time jobs
To try to cover the bills
And i don’t what to say
There are endless stale cliches
But you’re not getting any better how could you?
When there’s so much money to be made
I read the last words of the letter that you left
On the corner of your desk
In an accidental glance I’m sorry
It’s so expensive to be happy
