Was it a hole or a ladder
And did it even matter
I’ll bleach up the splatter
Send your love after
Just when I forget
Joy flees
and sorrow stays
The come what mays
And underneath a new canvas
Spot free
Silly me…
I dip my brush in— and begin
Oh and out out
The damn spot— the stain
Drained the Shout— what a pain
Oil is thin
Water’s thinner
Time to cure— perfect for a sinner
Like me— a wretch like me
Glory be
I forgot
Then remembered what I could not
The forgotten and The folklore
I need a satchel
Carry my weight
Push up every now and then
Can ascend a ditch or a mountain
Carry my stories wit me…
