Time is long. We can use some of this.
The physical founding of spirit is rare.
Not too shy to thrust—but too shy to kiss.

Though software talks—and talks—and talks
And tries to convince us otherwise.

The Democrats are stupid and wise.
Before he writes a poem he walks—and walks—and walks.
Not your poetry, it was your eyes.
But the poetry, if you want to know the truth,
Bored me to tears. Sidney’s lies.

The voice always tries to speak for its skin,
Never knowing what kind of trouble the love song will get it in.
I want love. I don’t what trouble.
Software turned my hardware into rubble.
Trouble was the raging sea. Love was a bubble.
I thought I could love. But love was trouble.
