Coma / Smoke

Where’d you go?
So I know…
decided I’m leaving,
somersault,
I’ll dissolve,
there’s no way of knowing.
…oh, and I finally caught a coma,
oh and my irony forged an omen.
Couldn’t hear your name,
couldn’t steer on my own;
you had barely aged,
let it domino,
in the evening,
had I said I’d postpone?
Sever all your limbs,
follow head over toes.
Years ago,
I coined the portmanteau,
I tore the words you sewed,
thought that I would shape it,
it’s all in the cadence,
hard enough to say at all.
Further in a deeper haze,
oh I couldn’t steer on my own,
hardly had an even say,
had I even said I’d postpone?
Sister I know
harder than most,
when you’re bitter to the ‘aura’,
she never spoke,
the better of a woman,
she was the colour of smoke,
go farther in the furrow, called it off,
she was held in a choke,
and the corners of the atlas
seared, white as a tone,
a murmur at the lighter
sounds of naphtha,
burned harder than most.

I Could Be Back

I never noticed what you're running from,
in an open, in a marathon on my own,
tiny doses of America,
cus I was owed it, it was legible! Oh don’t…
I never noticed all the chemicals,
so potent, it’d turn me blonde on its own,
I’m eroding, I’m a replica,
but for a moment I’m adorable, oh, I know.
I could be back when you know.
Don’t be modest, were you way down low?
Rotate it, I’ve been cut in decimals,
bored of walking, pull my ankles off…
by way of promise, I was taken there under oath.
Don't look at me like that when you know!
