Ring Around

A three car pile up
An inbox full of mail
An unanswered letter
A guest from out of town
Something said in haste
Spoken out of waste
We all fall down
We all fall down

(aside from the connection to the childhood chant) there is something to be said for a repeated last line. a haunting of the first.


recently:

today
i am writing
simply to say
i am exhausted
i have given and given
not to say i've got none
i have plenty
more than necessary
find me falling in, flipperless fins
i'd rather sink than swim
i'd rather sink than swim
