I do this
Late at night
I do this
Perverse mental masturbation
I do this
All these thoughts I aint supposed to think
I do all this thinking
about what we could be
If we could get it together
and get to being
one another
with all these things together
being things together
Grand compression distill it all to one moment….
And then it’s over
And what’s left
But to rollover
Grab the towel
Or maybe the bed sheet
Or maybe the shovel
And roll over
Reminds me of Adele singing, “We could have had it all.” I really like the phrase, “mental masturbation.” Great work.
