in a town full of pennies and dimes
let me show you what a dollar can look like
just as
guns and streets
can make an oyster remember the sea
tonight i broke an E
tomorrow i will break a heart
and in time i myself
will break
snap
and splinter
but for now
i am stronger than leather
and the state of vermont
and so a pause can exist
we lose ourselves
we break it off
we walk it along
and away
and in time you call
as the internet is out
william blake
ernest hemingway
edgar allan poe
and now
mac book pro
and an impersonator on instagram
the written word is dead
so far gone are you brother
that you cannot even tell your tracks
from those you have dragged along with you
it is so sad how i need to lose you dear friend
and so lost to be so sad friend
so dear
and so, so lost
dinner
monday
like a joke
written for where we should have been
a blazing love song on a guitar with a missing string
written for you sounding so as yet incomplete
