Here Is Always Nowhere

In the beginning is where you’ll find the ending
What was left behind, but your red garnet earrings
On your pillow, a single lock of hair
You said “baby, here is always nowhere”
Your voice, it sings inside my head
Maybe the first, maybe the last
What is left, but ghosts behind cursed eyes
And their echo, a cleared throat of stubborn cries
Filling up the night’s godless air
I said, “baby, here is always nowhere”
Your face, it slithers inside my dream
I’ll wake to find you gone and wonder
When is this dream going to end
What is left but everything we kept to save
Buried ruins of being born astride the grave

It's nylon or it's nothing, it's poetry seduction
It's wanna-be postmodern, a course devoid of any truth
Leave me alone and pick up the phone and call your lonely mom
It's all about the issues that touch you deep when you're alone
It's all about the sixteen that I received on my ACT
Leave me alone and pick up the phone and call your lonely mom
I'd turn you on if I knew how, but that is not an option
I'd let you cop a feel tonight, but then you'd have to turn on the lights
Leave me alone, I’m drinking all alone, so why don't you come and take me home, leave me alone, leave me alone

Rustbelt Sunsets

When I drink, I always think
About the loneliness in all of us
Cradles to graves, just to say:
It’s just a trick that cuts the prattle to the quick
Rattle of bones, found below
This drone of gray, fits the sky in Midwestern ways
Rustbelt sunset, Zephyr eyes
Her ruddy hand rested on my quivering thighs
When you slow danced
Across from me, you whispered
Real close, “I know what you want and
what you want to see”
When I drink, I always think
About the wanderlust in all of us
I brushed my lips along her hips
Stolen Kisses played to our hits and our misses
“You think about death too much,
cut to the chase and feel my lonely touch”
Rustbelt sunrise, Davis to Vine
Her neck tasted like the beach in late July
Hey sexy barkeep don’t send me away
I’ve been here all day
You’ll hope and pray and one day you’ll say,
“I remember his laugh, a flack on Prozac”
We kissed and said goodbye outside the station
She wore pajamas and tortoise shell Warby Parker’s
Never a light so dim as ours

Cut your eyes
See through every thin disguise
Realize what's inside you
How to find you
I know
Hanging from your window
Watching stars cold and bright
Only midnight
Fade to gray
A memory recurs for days
We drove the van to your dad's house
Where we crashed out
Passed out
Reading murder mysteries as the snow fell blue white
Only midnight
Now it's dawn
Are you up
Are you dreaming
Is it morning
Are you leaving
Are you up
Can you hear me
