take care of both hands going into the clutch, going into the curve, it's your grace, it's my nerve, that made cliffs into climaxes, made love into short glancespassed between two kids with their feelings exposed, nerve endings assempled in light of the load they had carried, and these things as secrets imposed their own image, took care and took courage, until we floundered hard and forced ourselves
to swallow that last ounce of hope, to be realistic, you must see that reality is a joke, that we're banging our heads in morse code confusion, trying to find a fit in the middle aged mold, from tweny one, you're growing old and outdated, competitive and quiet, with your television tunred up and telling your life through the windows
to the people below you, stop at red light and talk to the homeless, who travel to georgia, who always seem to be exchanged in dollar signs and policies, but hunger with a conversative need, there's no hitching here, so why don't you
ride south with me for a while, unless you're headed somewhere else, a cop's explanation with a cop's forward motion, and we're pretending we fit it, but it's just observation, a circumvent learning that our occupations can't seem
to make lines we'll decide are worth learning, so cue up the entry, the following footsteps, the heel clacks and bullets passed while joining their ranks, oh, i've made some mistakes, oh i've made some mistakes
back in my day, i thought people were perfect, but i now i know, now, that if you're not one of them, you're not worth, the flick of their wrist when they pass you the dollar, when they pass you the insult, when they sit and they swelter
behind their high windows in the midst of their oceans, no, those lifeboats and telephones, those service providors, have little conscience left
when it comes to surviving.
