may you weep among the silent golden rushes of the sun
may you sleep tossing dreams back and forth across the finish line
may you smile standing among the shadows of the spirit world
may you stare silently at the figures bowing out of the mirror
may you run slipping along motionlessly the ice cracking behind you
may you wind slowly in and out of a powerless movement of grace
may you swim dancing across the oceanographer's dreams you toss back and forth across the finish line
may you be small
may you be silent
may you be strong

Spilt milk tension
You burned the house down

Since then
You stared holes into the ceiling
Wishing for weightlessness

Stress mess
Trees bend to slap you as you pass
As if you had offended nature itself

(Since you said you had to go to see to how to take two I too had to see to how to stop you)

Stop drop roll
Kettle condensation
Stare at the telephone

Drone clone
Smash your head
Against the slot machine

Dreams seem not effective anymore
You swore you detected a secret door

Since you said you had to feel love
You're never satisfied
