Say what you said
again so everyone can hear
I’m out on the lawn,
there are rabbits and deer
The moon was bright, late October
once when I was fourteen
rolled it up to empathize,
smoke signs from the seams
I chased you through the woods
I drew you from life so I could frame it
I’ve read all the words that made you famous
“I’m nothing if not entertainment”
But I dare you, I dare you to say it
When we meet on that road again I won’t dig up.
I won’t have hands to shake
I won’t have hands to shake
or deals to break
