The noise of Fall is deafening. Tie your shoes and grab your coat. You shouted 'til your throat was sore. I watched the seasons change from where I stood in piling snow.
Listen, friend: I've got a few bucks and some reasons in one fist. In the other, got some memories and the lining of my pocket in a grip.
Do you wanna fight the cold off with me and a couple drinks? I'm thinking one good weekend and a friendly face could save this. Blame this time that's piled between us, blame the deep snow as we sink. Call me up and maybe we could scan the skyline, eyes unblinking.
And I know it's been a long time. Bills tied hands, time clocks grabbed throats. You've floated, changing hue on wind gusting. I'm a name you half forgot ****** in the snow.
And I'll be gone come Spring time, with my lowbrow jokes; my crude reminders of the sharp angles of the letters I use to spell my name.
