dance downward somebody whispered
and she not knowing what to do
imagined a flower slowly dying in a sudden frost
then she pretended
she was wilting
and at the sight
someone marveled

but i am not a marvel i told her and i didnt whisper i was honest i said girl i am no good for you and i purposely spoke gramatically incorrect so as to make an example of the shit that i am
not shit in a good way
but diarrhea

and she kissed me put her face right up against mine and she swore that i was, that i am

if only she knew if only she knew
my skies are so gray they've dulled from their
blue

Thanks for poking me into stopping by. This is astounding in its travel from the lyrically beautiful "imagined....frost" to the brutally honest "not...diarrhea". A very distinct voice going on here in my admittedly knuckle-headed opinion. But, for what it's worth, bravo!
