Any where over the rainbow
My wordless brain’s flying
And I want you all to hear
My voiceless essay cry

And I’m resting on a crescent planet
Sing you all to wake
I’m slipping into sleep briefly
To escape into the desert

Well you try and try not to try
So walk up on a track with a pack
And flick your clock hands to the side
And bite down on your weed

Oh lost and nameless Shaganah
Oh dazzled dreamer dude
Walk and disappear into
A star that burns for you

I fell in love today, one and a half times
I fell in love with a moment and a vibe
And I almost died from my stupidity
And I felt my age unrealized

So please help me- but can I help?
Can I do anything for God?
He works all day and comes home
To dishes piled up in the sink

And he cries in the kitchen
And I watch football
And I touch him in bed
And he fakes an orgasm

This morning I felt as though I weren't even me
as though I had washed up at sea
and I remembered my dreams
and I had slept half the day away

So I debated what to do
it being noon
so I walked to the next town
to the cafe I love
where jazz music plays
and the place was quite empty
I had a muffin and coffee
and I rewrote a beginning
