i’m
sliding down a wire
i’m counting on the fire
that burns inside
keeps me dry
i’m
looking for a sign
i need a small reminder
fools are always kinder
if they are loved
i was told there is a lake
with a woman underneath
anyone who tries to find her
is never seen again
i’m
tripping up a staircase
i’ve fallen flat on my face
trying to get back
to the top of that wire
