lyrics

Photoautomat
Portraits of 1,000 nights spent dining
But mostly wining
With angels

Some stick out their tongues
Some of them slept in my bed
And a few of them even had funerals

My collection of
Items signifying love
They don’t all spark joy but they all have meaning

Meaning tends to sit
On the surface of the past
Because memories, like objects and people,
need cleaning

My new green coat
Has got a belt that I can tie
Into a knot when I want it closed tightly

My new green coat
That my dear friend gave to me
Is the most-recent best thing I have

She told me that it lived
In the Met museum
And I could see it, in a case behind glass

Reasons to stay packed in boxes
Safe from the risk of belonging
Prolonging my hesitance

My ceramic dog
Wags its tail as if it sees you crawling
From the the night through my window

Turn it upside down
And see the letters of my name
Arranged in no particular way

Ren and Stimpy toys
The first obsession in my life
Reminds me of the meaning in an object

This one was my first
I hesitate to call it it
He has a name and once he almost got lost in a fire
that I set

Reasons to stay, I’m uncounting them
Because you are the reason that kept me
And I’m taking what’s left of me

Reasons to stay, I am weighing them
Because staying feels like a coercion
And leaving desertion
