there goes

blueintheface

there goes the national policy bundled up in shreds
there goes another movie lively on its head
here comes another novel
there goes the last straw, cigarette bound and woven
keep your head above your shoulders you said
as if I had to be scolded. Waste one more year
and I may kill you, wolves and teeth, brown scar kitchen knife wounds
reckless squalor and no victory to claim
there goes another day, unfolded and uncared for
lost among a wilderness of rhymes

keep the there goes and they may never leave
care for the tired the hungry so they may repay
you are a god you don't have to try
be selfish with the here we comes
or lost them all other again

here we come, there goes,
a lost timeline unwound.
