Right On Red
Bird of Youth

Last night I fell

Ask why and I won't tell

I made no sound

Spilled upon such storied ground

It's pinstriped mane

This thin light hand

Was asking me to dance

I took a breath and I took the chance

A wrong turn

Another

Someone's thinking of her

This night's not for lovers

It's for slips and covers

Good friends

Questions

The singer not the song

I don't play fair I just play along

I see better parts of me

But you saw them first take heed

This leaking pen

The shattered limbs

Is a sign you've seen the worst in me

I saw different

Lines carved in cement

Names on graves and barn doors and last stands

Brothers with no others

To make this life a home


With for a breast they spit and moan

Too tired to sit we heard a call to arms

Up on the highway strip and through

The blinds they could see but it hurt to look

I don't run for trains I'm too ashamed of the faces as the doors shut

I'm sad and mad and shook

I see better parts of me

But you saw them first, take heed

These ten cents ashes are a sign there's nothing left to see

The better driver

A bigger fool

Yes I'm hoping what the drinks washed off I knew

What you brought as an afterthought

Stayed our hands after the rain had stopped

You say

I sleep

But not then or don't you see

Never tired, a bad liar

I won't take the wheel this night

My left

This path

If you would please cut the lights

What a great summer night
