about

Love song as an atmospheric ballad.

lyrics

Downtown

Trains & crickets, the space velvet enough
for a guitar & Elvis singing soft & low...
The night's going slow here,
slow as a naked back moving gently to the touch.
Reach up a little, feel & mess the hair,
taste distance so smoke-close it's a face being named
like streets as you near them,
slipping into a dream of fading cinemas,
of silver rain on the wind.
Heading east, now west, this maze takes form,
an envelope's navigation to where it belongs, or could,
delivered by a kiss of so much sweet spit & sweat.
Find, find the address, arm around arm,
over neon fields & damp fragrance dense
in the shadows.
We are that package, its interlocked strings.
We are those rooming house woods.
