Expecting Rain

the earth and sky that melts with flesh and bone

when you asked me how I was doing, was that some kind of joke?

it was all a big joke,
whatever it was about

life outside goes on all around you

oh, darlin, tell me the truth,
how much time i got?

seven more days

life is brief

No time to suffer or blink
And no time to think

And the one eyed undertaker blows a futile horn

i ain’t dead yet
my bell still rings

I dident realize how, young you were

Wherever the children go I’ll follow them.

They asked me what my name is, I said "Captain kid"

my name, it ain’t nothin
my age, it means less

almost like I don’t exist

please cross me off your list

I keep my fingers crossed

and not give a damn

i’d do it but
i just can’t remember how

You walk into the room
With your pencil in your hand
You see somebody naked
And you say, “Who is that man?”

if someone around him died and was dead
he knew how to bring em back to life

When will you arise ???

i know when the time is right to strike

hope I don’t blow it

god knows it could snap apart right now
just like putting scissors to a string
