A Poem (一首诗) - La Dispute[00:00:00]

Third time writing you a letter getting darker[00:00:10]

I'm getting worse and worse[00:00:17]

I had a reason for the writing[00:00:23]

But trying to exorcise my demons didn't work[00:00:27]

To try to rid me of[00:00:34]

The worry and to purge you out of wonder[00:00:37]

For the future and the hurt[00:00:42]

I wrote a poem[00:00:45]

I'm increasingly aware I've been painting things in gray[00:00:48]

I'm increasingly alarmed by the pain[00:00:54]

I'm increasingly alive to every cloud up in the sky[00:01:00]

I'm increasingly afraid it's going to rain[00:01:06]

See lately I've hated me for over-playing pain[00:01:12]

For always pointing fingers out at everyone but[00:01:17]

Who in fact is guilty and for picking at my scabs[00:01:22]

Like they could never break but they can and[00:01:28]

They will and I'll spill like a leak in the basement[00:01:32]

A drunk in the night choir just slur all those[00:01:39]

Words to make deadbeat that sweet old refrain[00:01:44]

Self-inflicting my pain and therein lies the real[00:01:49]

Shame I heard when they were[00:01:54]

Picking through the rubble finding limbs[00:01:57]

They sang hymns but Now what of what I sing[00:02:00]

The worry the wonder the shortness of days[00:02:07]

The replacement for purpose[00:02:13]

The things swept away by[00:02:15]

The worry the wonder my slightness of frame[00:02:18]

The replacements for feeling[00:02:24]

The casual lay[00:02:28]

And the worst of the wildlife wears clothes and can pray and[00:02:29]

The worry the wonder for three meals a day[00:02:36]

Only death unimpeded not slowing it's pace[00:02:43]

Brings that petty old worry and wonder away[00:02:48]
