i've been sleeping with skeletons again lately and drenching myself in purfume so no one can smell my dead passion or the inspiration i always seem to lose i keep hearing what you said and i'm hearing dead poems being recited in my head again and i know my words will outlive me like they outlived you and that keeps me company i've been writing things that don't make sense and sitting outside burning books again *i've been sleeping with skeletons again they tell me not to write these things down again* (cjw)
