I don't know why. I can't say no. I guess I should. But I can't let go. Any day I'll be all right. But not tonight. . But come away from the window and close the blind.
There's a shifting of the shadows down along the woods. There's an echo of a gun down in the hollow. The neighbor's dog is barking like a wild thing that's been caught.
I've always had long arms and my sleeves never fit.. And my mother would worry about my dangling wrists and. I never grew to tall, but it did me no harm.
We just can't help it so we do it again. We just gun the gas and let the wheels spin. It's true and I've heard it said. We're not so very far from the back of our heads.
Too hot to sleep in this room tonight. Just too restless to try. I've been folding my prayers into paper airplanes. Leaning out the window and watching them fly.
