To prove that he was sorry The tiger with the flaming tailTo prove that he was sorry by ~kaxeeu
because he wasn't quick enough
to make it through the first time
he'll find his way home at night
The fish with the crooked fin
swims in circles because she wants to
no one asks
because no one really wants to know
The trees with the sagging limbs
that scoop leaves from the ground
too weak to raise them to the sky
they'll have to wait till spring
The seashell with an echo
its song was lost at sea
the emptiness will have to do
but the small boy let it be
The family dog with sloppy ears
it pants when grandma visits
and growls at the moon at night
when no one else is home
The circus el
A sucker for your double dose The drive back was tragicA sucker for your double dose by ~kaxeeu
not in the sad way
but in the silent way
a way more silent than a sleeping pill
the sky didn't help
it just stared and repeated itself along God's reach
I wanted to get back for the company
there was a different person
happier, even
if I can even say that much
"What's the matter?" he asks
I don't know
him, I guess.
