Oil Reeds
Location
Scented oil and a dozen sticks
Emptied out and spoiled it
Poisonous and full of blame
Cheeks beet red again
Spilled it out and filled it up
A tablespoon and a teacup
Been too long since the last sinking spell
Is this real or is this hell
In these dreams they’re wasted as well
Hollowed faces just resonating shells
Sweet stranger with a smile to match
What have you in that mind of yours
Hardly the one I’ve been looking for
But I want all of your heart’s tours.
