Action
In innocence and purity we rejoice
We count the things we don’t possess
In pain the lead does raise her hand & the wind pulls at her hair
You braid her hair,
tie an allegorical noose,
talk to the summer air
Cut
Mistake no. 2
Holding you closely like a child
Taking the pain
Taking it all
Breaking away
Inviting you into my life
First four checkmate
One my fall
Cut
Your mistakes:
Let’s say Attention sells
Talent sells
What does that word even mean?
& in & out you tear apart
& in & out you leave
To live or not perform
The apple falls and eats the tree
Cut
My eulogy:
In goes the beat of that drum
Out goes the beat of that drum
Steady forevermore
& contradiction makes her decision so in oblivion she rumbled cross the sky
I loved you dearly,
My other half, my enemy, my pedestal,
Good bye.
