I've quit calling it falling
all of the
gulping that I fend
Now that I've bent all my limbs backwards
I'm having to break them all back in
buried in what I play the fool for
always the liar and then friends
dreading that I should fall asleep
knowing that this must somehow
end
always i'm
packing up my reason,
freely & giving up my time
I'm tired of
dragging this body behind me
fearing the
damage it's done on my spine
