say what
in the backyard
it stuck to your clothes
the limp that i walked in with
is following me home
and the one time we spoke
you didnt have much to say
it stabbed itself in the back
when its snake eye tattoos
looked the other way
and you bleat out its name
waking up in a cold sweat
the limp i walked in with
is following me home
the blood you tried to transfuse
is sloshing in your boots
i wish you could see the man you made
it's like i said
it's not like a movie
with every forward step
you get further away
well camping blows anyway
find one that looks just like it
before its wife and kids get home

Little Kids

little kids (too late to slow down)
it was some time
late at night
when they descended
on an umbrella made of light
you couldnt even breathe
when it spoke english at you
yeah you're a blob of meat
stunned in production lines
they spin in your chair
they smash up your eggs
little kids running
on grown adult legs
in a violent self defense fantasy
tore you apart so easily
can't help yourself with all your hard work,
and money and know-how
slam the brakes but it's too late to slow down
it makes me feel so old

The Frog
There was a frog sticking out
of the mouth of a snake
and I'm just a kid
poking them with a stick
too scared to pick a side
Does it matter that you died
an animal without any ambition
would it matter if you died
If a man pretends you lived?
In the palm of your hand
he tries to walk like a man
bulging watery fear eyes
at least your dad isn't here
snake lays an egg in my mouth
convulsing throat
tight around his waist
shots of dark blue flooding his veins
try to shake off that shiver of dread
but that's not what he would have said
cook in the sun, sleep on a log
the bog is where he belongs
i'm just passing by on a nature hike
to clear my mind
and waste some time
his family retires to the pond
after the ceremony
would they understand?
your guess is as good as mine
too scared to make a move
