you say something bad
you did it for a laugh
you didn’t get
caught off my guard, looking
over at the light
reaching out to touch it
you say something else
you’re sleeping on the shelf
you’re teething
caught on my sleeve, turning
over and around
reaching with my hands out
looking for something
powerful and soft

does this party stress you out?
can’t stand talking about yourself
what have i been up to? well,
i can’t recall
the other day i saw your picture on the wall
but things are going well
i’ve just been keeping to myself
i’ll try to get it back to you in the fall
got some words to write
just working thru it all
so
can we go slowly
i got lost behind the veil
finding other hills to scale
yeah everybody moves
off the known to find a new workaround
but everyone’s a salesman when you’re down
so i keep it to myself
trace the county on the Belt
seventeen miles through the snow
counting up
an apple core tucked into your cuff
then you’re holed up in the basement
crying to the beat
so
can we go slowly
i got lost along the way
what was i supposed to say?
can we go slowly
doubled over and unglued
what was i supposed to do?

Get Back
02:45
|

night driving at four in the morning through the town
dim forager lost in the dark following the sound
bright glare from the moon tracing a moving truck
wind rushes and all of your little hairs stand up
but once you’re losing the thought, you’re allotted
half as much once you get back
big plans just to find yourself camped in a parking lot
waking up to a knock on your window from the cops
come to from a dream of swimming with some new man
lizard dancing in the wake of your headlamp in the sand
but once you knew what was up, you got all knotted
only just to say:

i hear the hawks coming down
and i’m holding out hope
but what am i holding?
you’ll have to haul me off
i catch the bus going north
just to sort it out
open it up to Haley
she’ll have to bail me out
you know what to say
when i’m all wound up
i sit and play it
just trying to find that note
o when i get the notion, i ride around
til i’m fading
but then it’s faded up
breaking out in the moment i close my eyelids
i feel my palm open now
so i hold it up
over opening eyelets
ready to hand it down
closed up the fence
so i climb up
and over
just trying to find that note
feel my way through the fields full of overgrowth
to find them empty
where’d everybody go?
o when i get the notion, i tear around

Slug Night

sober up
you wandered out to find a friend
but everyone is closing up
or closing down
so, find a way to get back
to the sound
holding something bright and powerful
but tonight i’m a slug
lay around and get stepped on
riding the dog
heading down to my friend
out on the rocks
on your path in the state park
how could i know
what was inside your head?

it’s wintertime
time to see all your buddies
where’d everybody go?
and i just wanna see my
buddy’s band but
they’re all out on the road
so i stay in
it’s spring and the flora is
blooming wildly
all along county roads
i’m counting on something to
come alive
so i don’t come out alone
it’s summer now
something is all around us
droning a simple tune
you follow the sound
til you hear her tell you
longing’s enormous too
then you’re driving in the rain
on a clover interchange
just swerving through the day
you find an end
but you spent
all your money

don’t let me down, softy
we’ve all pulled awful cards
you don’t seem so powerful
when you’re on the ground
softly fading out
coffee on your sleeve
where’s your faith in me?
you can always call
softy, after all
i’m your biggest fan
hear the show of hands
here’s your favorite show
here’s a telescope
lichens on a truck
you’re a lightning bug
there’s always untold horror
in your own orbit
softy, go forward fearlessly
you can come back home
you can find that note
and you’ll find me, too
softy, just be true

we swam
and you splashed
water on me
now i see you
in the creek
crashing over river rocks
in streams
dripping out the faucet
rushing down the street

am i coming down with something
or just coming down?
try to be brave for my friends
so i spit it out
swirling around in my head
c’mon now, calm down
shattered in the back of my van
spinning out
great blue heron in the lake swimming
you’re on your back now
trying to find a place to meet friends
but they’re all closing down
but is it really so bad to be floating around
come on jodi, get it right
work it out
don’t let me down
