i trace back/youre songs

not another one of those dylanesque things

poet/write her/old age scribe

well the wind whips the smell of

urban artifacts into the ends of your hair

my skin opens and lets it all in

im still looking for a face on the run

just one/but maybe im getting ahead of it

with a charged stomach

it hurts

tell me why this sounds like/earlier sounds

cassette bound/around the early nineties

yet again im listening/close to the speaker

TEACH ME SOMETHING NEW

please im tired of girl faces all alike

in the pillow the talk is better

ill open up my music collection

play my favorite voices

and then my favorite sounds

and where will you be

standing on the end of a word

and wrapped in words

paper tags/rags of a line

pens and thread

wrapped in the dead

chew on something new

and for once im not down

im getting out

come come on ! % # $ & ]
