Mister Dog

There's lies and meaningless things and kind things
Sometimes so similar it's hard to tell them apart
And why would you
The snow feels good on your face and the darkness safe
...

just do it
don't do it
get over it
ignore it
...

I never understood origami
pink floyd and beer on tap
it's simple
there's a lot of them hanging over the bar
...

As I was standing there waiting
for his mouth to move
the words to be formed
I saw something peculiar
...

then it got cold
branches holding you up
a lost dog searching the streets
in the moonlight
...

I watched a man die today
swollen fingers turning yellow
in the burning sun
he was wearing a winter coat
...
