about

1996 - 2014

lyrics

autumn showed up early
its leafy fingers curling
a freshly painted city
our tired eyes, sitting.

and you said we were babies
adults to the world
a tad bit eternal
a sad line made fertile

you were the prettiest
when you saw the jellyfish
and you wanted me to smile
and i did, for a while

i wanted to see the statues
that made me feel short
but the staring contest had failed
to hit rewind or retort.

we booze ourselves to fend off
the futures we refuse
the people we might become
habits already in use.

now it’s the last school day
or an early evening cry
or a back alley scrapped knee
a spoonful of
sun in your eye.
