Asphyxiated Circle
Robert E Pollard Jr
These thoughts replace me when I'm on the floor
I cannot taste the sweetness anymore
You bi-polarize me with each test
Contaminate the faintest breath
For speaking well of in the name
Of where to watch and who to blame
All of us there, what should I wear?
For human frailty on parade
To entertain, you may invade
A silent party, secret wish
At best an unconvincing kiss
Expand, explode
Wrinkle up
Or blow away
I look you up to let me down
I take the time to track you
Through chosen smokescreen silhouettes
Who've earned the right to back you
It's for so long perfect and wrong
You write me out, I reappear
To criticize, you interfere
But I will say what I want to
And love is nothing you can do
Expand, explode
Wrinkle up
Or blow away
