Paroles de Needle & thread

Tie your tether on (the knot keeps slipping out) Eyes wide, breathe deep, blood flow, push through Expand to keep, contract & rue Pools round your feet, eyes with circles You were a sweet pursuit held fast with city roots Neglected by the chute, our gaze is rendered mute Feel a tender warmth & numbness Blissfully detached from all this Noise & dust from absent makers Made beds to sleep with forsakers These words are not mine, I just put them in a line & hang them down like vines, all letters dry with time Use them for little white lies, clearer in sheltered sighs With clumsy hopeful tries, they help make you your size
