Sitting swirled in dark Glowing singers play The woman near me shifts Wrapped in pride I see you  Fixed to the cymbal  Nailed in concentration I huff  A breath filled with broken adolescence  The woman is broken from her glaze of motherhood For a moment I notice it was you She was looking too I blush  Wrapped in dark She doesn't know she isn't the only one watching  I glow with shame Burned by your old womb  You, still stapled to the drum Don't notice.  So I turn farther in to blue And watch.

the savory shame
Sitting swirled in dark Glowing singers play The woman near me shifts Wrapped in pride I see you  Fixed to the cymbal  Nailed in concentration I huff  A breath filled with broken adolescence  The woman is broken from her glaze of motherhood For a moment I notice it was you She was looking too I blush  Wrapped in dark She doesn't know she isn't the only one watching  I glow with shame Burned by your old womb  You, still stapled to the drum Don't notice.  So I turn farther in to blue And watch.
