i am a blow fish,
i am a porcupine,
i am the poison mushroom,
  the girl your mother warned you about.

i am the rabbit,
  and the hole.
i am the last drink before you forget.
i am the sunburn,
  on an overcast day.
i am everything you'll never be.

forgive i do not.
forget i can not.
foot so far out the door,
  all you see is my shadow.
persistence will fail you,
  ends of wits is all ill bring you.
