anticool

we all know that what donnie says is true


i am the smallest child in the biggest shoes.
i have friends in dark places that trace back to me in empty cables
hollow plastic
beautiful elastic
hold me together and make it be okay even if just for the night
because being here has been a lifetime and i\'m running out of time.
one last line and then we'll go spy on the kids
who jaywalk just to test the cars because nohting else has translated,
nothing else is challenged.we only want to be heard for our voice
it was my choice,
linger
a part of moist air.
professional hypocrit,
ace in the pocket like hair in my locket,
i need you but i don't.

do you need me?

hey guilt, can i rest my head on your shoulder a while? i'm feeling a little tired.
i'm always here for you. anytime.
hold my hand.
i've held it since junior high.
then let me go already.
let me go so i can let me go.
redemption is hard to come by in this town and you're not making it any easier.

a scuffle ensues and i find,
in the end,
i'm only wrestling with sheets.
