Imperfections
IMPERFECTIONS
why do they want you more
now that you have left than
they have ever wanted
you before
does the pain of you leaving
give them some kind of
perverse pleasure
are they more afraid of living
than of dying alone the
way you chose to go ?
it’s no accident…
songs that sell
the most are sad
sidetracking
bouncing beams
deflecting
realities
we need to know
