Just Enough Light to Live in the Eye, Thank You


Then too when yesterday arrives
And I look especially shitty in the mirror
Shaving and mad at my performance
In last night’s nightmare recently ended
Saying to my face why didn't you
Pocket those magic emeralds 
You Goddamned fool and I keep
Trying to remember something then
When afternoon later appears
Swaying loosely in the dining room
Like an alcoholic Christmas tree
That’s when I recall I dreamed you
Wielding the violent violin of desire
And playing the holy fuck out of it
