lyrics

they said
“the leaves have never been more beautiful, scientifically”
something about how

“it’s been cold and bright enough to go out with a bang”



got caught staring at a family mausoleum

missing mine and yours

finally a squirrel broke me out of the trance
and sent me home with an October sunburn



tried to read the tissues like tea leaves but felt cheated 

when no wisdom came from crying

they say it makes for much more space
if that’s what I said I wanted now—I would be lying
