“Get Upset”
it’s no fun being stuffed inside this thing
came undone stealing cough drops and bandages
it’s not meant to be — it’s just entropy
it’s not meant to be
i don’t trust anything i can’t give back
when i feel your heart beating i get upset — it’s unfortunate
you’re strung out lying supine in this place
with such grace as a sandbag in Anchorage
just yesterday — you were here with me
just yesterday
i don’t trust anything i can’t give back
when i feel your heart beating i get upset — it’s unfortunate
oh they filled you up with tiny diamonds
oh how you’d crumble to coals
and they’d fill you up with tiny diamonds
oh they filled you up with tiny diamonds

“Hospice”
done in by the dose
a whirring grows
lurching through your bones
beckoning the holy ghost

“One Big Punch”
did it even take a minute or was the answer in the way it was said
not sure what i was s’posed to expect — probably nothing
it came reeling like an epithet borrowed from the death throes of my Juliet
still nothing ever came of it — just one big punch to the system

“Stalwart”
are you solid where you are
caught you leaping from a car alarm
could’ve sworn you’d seen a second headed man
like — what’s with that
still i’m sorry ‘bout the clue
couldn’t keep the thing away from you
heading gestures from some hallowed scornful hand
like — what a plan
what’s the point of moving on
like a mote in a sunny spot — confined to an updraft
up and up and over yon
like and insect into the dark — left to settle and get forgot
lift the sheet from off the cot
lift the paint from off the parking lot
were you so surprised with what you got
it’s what you’re not
what’s the point of moving on
like a mote in a sunny spot — confined to an updraft
up and up and over yon
like and insect into the dark — left to settle and get forgot

“Tinsel”
up at the top
over the sot — right where you want
this time o’ mine
the causeway’s covered in ice — tinsel and lights
keeping it cool
stepping in real close to you — it’s something to do
just kids on a bridge
someone hopped over the edge — you know the rest
i found a photograph of us in the back corner of my house
i thought that we could work this out — i thought we’d work this out

“Envoy”
two dents and hole beside my bed
you dealt an asterisk
dwelling in all you left
a bloodied rag and a penitent
you got bent and i felt it
