So be charming
with your tasteful tongue...
Darling,
I can't stand the state...
Love always ends too soon
corrupting lies with truth...
Familiar translucent swirls
of a crisp new season...
He still hasn't called,
I check the dial tone again...
I remember a time
when I wore my skin...
Your love, like cactus fruit
its tiny teeth sharp and taunting...
Momma says I've got a poet's heartache
that I dally...
Too many times,
I've ambushed myself...
You were always brilliant,
the way you'd undress me...
Daddy it's 2:13
and I'm glad you found a way...
Being pretty has only got me so far
Right into your arms...
