FOUNTAIN
radial layout of streets with fountains in between
birds eye beauty
far from the anger of cars closer to god than the stars
i see everything
from this high up
you can't see yourself
in the water in the fountains
love flows from the marble to me
rolling my pants to the knee
i want to have something
but i dont know what i am
singing for breathing for holding myself to the wind

SIDELINE
morning moon rare as it seems
out of bounds ball bounced to me
the power the sideline i shoot and i miss
and it all comes crashing they're laughing
oh how could some arms and some legs contort into those shapes that could look like that? bend and not break?
semaphore foul i'm waving the flag from the sideline
this life is all mine
i wish half of my skull
it wasn't so hard to love
meet in my room split me in two
we can do what you want to
mourning sun bearing the casket
of hours and hours of practice
the day will come where i feel so exhausted
so helpless so cautious

UMBRELLA
sun staring with my eyes
burden my brain from the inside
oh my coming from my hide
cold blooded now now never cry
lies, married to the sideline buried in the bleachers masked by signs and flags
all i see is red turned white never thought to give up now i might
wear a smile like an umbrella
i wanna catch all of the water
safe
everything in place
foam pit practice every day
say, what's it like to sway?
rigid wrist bent now know the way back
sifting through the stack
red touches black can still attack, insane i guess
snakes still in the grass
anything can happen and it happens fast

BLOSSOM
the blossom is only as big as the drops of the gardeners sweat
you lend and you lend hoping life can pay back its debts
neither lender nor borrower be
lose your friends and your memories
IOUs sticky notes in my brain
owe it to myself license to change
reach out to the sunlight
pushing through the broken blinds
conditions must be right
or prepare for things to die
i wanna marry the moon
i hope that she marries me too
