did you bleed? she asked

not enough i said

so we fell in love

all over again

we could all take a few minutes to look around

and take a bullet or two

not sure if i wandered enough

not sure if i was ever really lost

disappear like a rider

on the storm

a hazy dinner

gold wine

owners and waitresses

a

killer on the road

i haven’t danced in a while i whispered

as my dyslexic feet quivered with the phrase

yeah you haven’t slept in a while either you fucking goon

ok but the dancing part i mumble

yeah that’s not gonna happen tonight

but why i question

you can’t dance to sadness all you life

you haven’t heard the smiths i snicker
