Capricious,
drinks too much...
kinda hairy (for a woman)
hands a bit rough (for a college grad)
cant make up his mind, 'cept when he does then he changes it again
getting older and fatter again
probably the drink...yeah, thats an easy assumption to make
probably the THINK...yeah thats the truth of it now aint it
thinking
thinking
   thinking
      thinking
"you think too much"
"I dont think so..."
but there aint no map, there aint no gps
no directions to follow
only a few bad hunches, suspicious remedies, paranoid suppositions
and a few superstitions
Hold a boiled egg on it, you will feel better tomorrow.
tomorrow
tomorrow

She used to say "things are falling into place."
but you have to make em fit dont you?  you have to make em stretch
maybe more stretching
stretching my mind until it wraps back around itself, encloses, huggs and kisses hello - never good-bye
amassing more knowledge,
from within where it matters, where it has to stay for now
maybe it will come out in paperback, all my cheapo friends can steal it from a big store in a bigger mall
but I doubt it.
Some stories are worth floating around in for a minute or two
then getting back to what you were s'possed to be doin'
What are we s'possed to be doin'?!
I drew pictures in the columns and the syllabus is illegible
the ink is smeared
the windows are dirty
the beard needs cut
and the square peg is looking cloud-ed for answers
and only seeing round holes in the sky...
paint it
with words
and celebrate with a drink!
...Capricious,
Drinks too much...
