Basking Inside Metaphor Play And Burst Capillaries

from Hollowed Queen by The Ticket

/

lyrics

scuppernong vinaigrette via scents of succulents
ripened to lighten the load,
barrow bearing bricks born of charleston schoolyards
where young lovers ran in rampant circles
‘round with authentic merriment here and there again
fair ye well hopefully wholehearted still holding
a snort of hendrick’s simply sipping
staring at the ginkgoes going golden
folding phantoms planted alongside high noon organs
do you write anymore when you wake up from coming down
do you tie your laces tight when stepping to this town
do you die in the night rain yesterday drinking for the better
do you know that i pray you will live forever
but only if the grapes and morning glories grow
by the porch side come summertime
i’ve been lying a lot regarding how to paint
guarded, masked
and like barthelme
“’i would pull down the very doors of heaven for a –‘
tuesday”

nothing eases transition
