you ever get a bad bottle job
from your best friend
and decide that you just might
probably, right? like men?

and then you leave another world behind
because the inward rolling caressing tide
is too beautiful to ignore
too much of a blessing to deny
or abhor

and when you finally settle on your
Utopian shore
you realize life is loose change
from an ever-altering store

pay now, ask later
the meter's running rickets
kiss those golden opportunities
grab another's nose and pick it!

just tell the fierce fumes of fate
"I do"
just freeze the breeze of unease
and follow your heart on through
love and live and learn and give
the truest chances and aspects
of two

you don't need to stare
into the horse's mouth
you're riding in the carriage
and you can still stay crazy
alright

just crazy with a new flavor
one that isn't freeze-dried
or so un-tantilizing
you'd have rather died

and let them say what they will
send them the overdue bill
because your life is what matters
you can make an army of time's tainted tatters

just tell the fierce fumes of fate
"I do"
just freeze the breeze of unease
and follow your heart on through
love and live and learn and give
the truest chances and aspects
of two
[repeat]
