New is Old

New is old

A shame really

The one who has the name

well...

She still has a name.

She still knows not of mine

but I may as well not

exist.

For she is legal

I am not

A lesbian

?

And I am not

Can drive a car

And I cannot

Can break a heart without lifting a figure...

And I am crippled by a conversation in the park...

 

goodbye to what never was.

goodbye to what was never attempted.

goodbye to hopes or dreams.

because the lovely multiverse it seems

has set the metronome jsut so

that ticks and tocks

smack me with blows

and throughout the lows

the lows

lows

lows

lows

lows....

The lows prevail.

So long sweater

Please take care
