dancing on her father’s feet
a hopscotch frog
afraid to leap

return return
the fragile strong
modern liquor
ancient song

a question of coffee
name mistranslated
smoke it clears
to something sacred

keyboard and some ketamine
list set overnight
she knows the moon is never gone
it’s only out of sight

fort, da, fort, da, fort, da

you’re looking for your roof to hold
I know
you know
I’m looking for the pines up north
