in the silence
before you start the song:
the soft crackle of the amp.

Anatomy and Physiology
poetryBetween the head
and the heart,
the guts lie
and the gut feeling
that i don’t have the guts.
lives in my spine now
poetrywhy,
little city burning
backs gettin’ warm
pictures of men
that shoulda been me
so i never grew up
i’m glad i figured that out
and i torture myself
and i’m only alright sometimes
why,
lighting up the glass
can’t stay off the ground
and i can’t remember
how nice it used to be
pictures of the moon
that’s where i’d like to be
that pond behind your house
where i go when i sleep
why.
