What ? On that day a dent just for me that fit my hips and back gods with broken legs knees bent back they were singing to closed doors to walls of indifference so I folded your words into small boats set them afloat man overboard man lost lost at sea or within me? torn off, unused visions and chill being brave won't save you from the grave free ourselves of ourselves or save our breath for breathing? What are you? To do this to me I'll eat you whole in anticipation I'll tell you all my truths and some lies can't do otherwise

I freed myself of work I freed the ties of kin alone to be alone So I'll dance with myself So I'll dance for myself

The darkest of places in my gut desire the knowledge of all thats wrong remember thine end so this is for the mothers who wait for their day and sisters who do things their own way this is for voices uncovered that won't be heard and poets on corners who find the words this is for lovers who break every rule
