it's just for a trick---
I'm marching in
to your bones
like a hundred cold textbook answers
that you want to refuse

you stand six seven eight
by a window you used to imagine would heal
you of all the waiting you do.
I am not a democracy and will probably tell you lies.
I can't help it
....sugar's the only answer
and it's just too bad.
Too bad for broken album covers
for shitty broken knees
and for the tired people who run the world and who will be happy to watch it burn.
