keeping score

whenever i hear that song
or blink too fast... i can see you
a portrait in brushed aluminum
fuzzy dark flood of hair and eyes
desperate tidbits to despise

crawling back from the edge
did you visit just for fun?
venturesome but for nobody
you have touched too much
dirty for the stronger old crutch

holy insidious mother my past

dreams on a premium to steal
tell me was it real or did i
how much is it i have missed since then
blur of hair and brown eyes
corner my sight, a fresh reprise

can you tell me apart, lamb?
sunlight blinding behind photos
ghost and a devil posess the right
juxtaposed a flower virginal lilywhite
unsmiling, an eight ball's fortune sight

blink too fast, i give you that much
toes keep score, crooked lines drawn
how's the air? the view is lacking...
well, you... take one dirty step small
no broken arms to break your fall
