she was the first
and only
woman to break my heart
twice
to have two albums
associated with agony
to be allowed to walk barefoot
across
my arterial highway
with that devilish grin
as i
begged for more
she could strut
cock her head
make me follow
i was a lemming
willing to charge blind
behind that ass
over the edge of the cliff
i know
lemmings don’t really
race
head first
the way i did
not once
but twice
had you seen the sparkle
in her eyes though
we could have high fived
as the ground
raced up to end our idiocy
the mass delusion
that she could be
tamed enough
to love someone
as lowly as me
better off
tying a leash
onto a tornado
