o god gilbert
when you said that
i'm afraid i'll have to jump across the gorge
like in this book i'm reading
when you read it back
you need a painkiller
but i m sober
stuck on some thought i can t express
i saw a part of you that was threatening to me
and i felt that i was messing in it
that fundamental problem with being friends
some people around here
can watch punky brewster
and that s about it
i probably would have been a little bored
waiting for that one comment
that ruins everything
but it is all subconsciously being said
if you are a sexist pig
then i have got to dislike you
for the rest of my life
i will have to listen
to certain devastating things
for the rest of my life
