DISARRAY
there is a minute when i happened to look away
away to the side of my face and i didnt come back
this shadow was too much for me to ask it to stay
sit and stare she said
just sit there and stare
it comes in waves my friend
this moment to feel
i fell into it somehow and i misstepped to the sidewalk
a crack lifted me up and then i hung by the treebranches
sit and stare she said
just sit and stare
my feet hang loose in the moonbeams
my harlot soft and sympathetic
you know my accent nolonger exists here
sit and stare she said
just sit and stare
my sweet prince had a price to pay when he looked up
at me and he sighed then shook his head
knowing, yes i said knowing i didnt belong there so i
sat and stared
just sat and stared
i speak with gumdrops in my mouth and my eyes
watered with disgust for i cannot say the words
just the body the languages speaks to a question
sat and stared
just sat and stared
hold onto me there and where i once was i will never be
i will not go back up there those tree branches that most say
belong to the moon i am not there now
i sit in puddles and speak in sonnets that discuss what is
not what was
and i am here now sitting and staring
just sitting and staring
the stars too bright the moonlight a ghost the crickets haunted
with their songs but you know they remember the truth
of who i am of what i am now and noone can share this secret
that we have now, my prince walked away with cloak in hand
disrobed and naked fighting nomore
and i am here now sitting and staring
just sitting and staring
no tears come to these eyes just puppets with drawstrings
and tubes with pastel paint so i try and make shapes with
my fingers and wait
and i am here now standing and peeling
standing and peeling the layers of this heart
away
away away
hold my hand and you will see
I love music, art, culture, languages, politics, Europe, travel, and anything exciting and adventurous.
