unmolested


I'm not a talker 
but tonight 
we can talk

let's get outside and 
find a place 
we can walk 

let's find a place we can walk back time 
let's find a place we can walk unmolested
if it's not too late 
if it's not too late 

i am swimming and breathing in this atmosphere
maybe just one more beer 
let me bend your ear

i am gasping and grasping collapsing in this atmosphere
let's get right out of here
let me lend you an arm, my dear

neither here nor there


[[ a song about where we are when we're on the phone ]]

she is so far away
hiding words 
at the end of a corridor

she is balanced on air
reading paint 
at the end of a corridor

if all you think 
is all you hear 

if all you think
is in your ear

where are you now,
woman on telephone?
are you neither here nor there?

she is thinking elsewhere 
giving herself
to a telephone microphone

she is moving her mouth
mouthing words
to a telephone microphone
