So I thought about
how I'd eagerly
said, "Oh, Yes"
to a sinking request
that'll begin and end so early
with a lasting lamprey
So if I suddenly
back down
a well of apologetic abrogation,
it might not be the best for ME
but maybe not for a crowd,
if you can see the mutation
What's to say I
finally couldn't grow
split & divide ad infinitum
Well, come on now,
it's just a surly guess....
There would be a Despise
leaving no other place to go
run down a street, a sky
it''ll find you, light or dark
dark or Sun
I can't tell you how
I can't even lie
I don't want to be obsession
or an aging man's possession
"Think of the ease...."
says junky voices, evocative wh*res
and all that'll please
But, no, I can't go along
tending a fridge,
an earnest mixed drink
and an overly loved dog
that doesn't know where to Give.

Ohhh, a lamprey is a classy way of saying "blood sucker", okay. Let me read this again, now that I'm ed-u-ma-cated

I like this.

no dividing while folks are watching...cool thoughts!

Thank you all!!
