All I wanted
was a little more time
before I thought it died.
Paranoia,
unable to decide
if what we’re holding is alive.
That sweet moment
stretching out
like an open hand.
Caught in movement,
buckle down,
find the good work again.
Obedience cuts at intractable knots.
If I could understand you,
We could solve anything.
Find that God work again,
if it’s owning ourselves,
if that would do us some good
God, how I’d simmer down.
It’s such a long ways from now
before you’d settle down,
before I’d earn any comfort,
doesn’t help I’ve been this way
for a long time now.
