unwanted and rudderless on another underground Sunday flub-dubbing my way through the weeks the months lost like episodes of shows I don’t watch anyway lately few words come to me fewer thoughts stay landing for a moment on my wires then gradually but inevitably fluttering away my hands the only birds who stay busy doing other things driving cars flicking lighters rarely touching anyone mainly holding tight for another friendly fire fight the train I’m on rocks and roars me through tunnels dug by dead men

The Only Birds That Stay
