Your sure-fire cure is your composure
Hazy countenance such a cinch
As I polish my self-possession
Take an armful of poetry
And find fistfuls of feelings I need to edit

Strung-out on nonchalant hope
Always walking away from change
When it’s given back bit by bit
Unfolding like amateur origami
Instead of simply trying a different tact

No good with arts and crafts
I default with every word I transmit
Because I cannot abide abandonment
The terms of this stopwatch covenant

Stumbling around self-imposed traffic cones
To obstruct any semblance of desire
All my schema under construction
Unspoken thoughts hidden underneath my clothes
Insulated in a wire

Stepping off the footpath
I’m flying below the well-adjusted radar
On par with my peculiar particulars
On top of everything
That’s clawed through me so far
