Insert Me In Your Life

Insert me in your life when you want, I'll wait patiently
Ignore me until you need another performer in your show
And I'm the most experienced one there is
I'm always happy to play the role of your love

Elect me as president once again, you know I'll accept
I'll bask in your glory, run with you in fields of wheat towards a glimmering sunrise
Pretending I'm dumb enough to believe it'll last forever
Pretending I don't live for the sensation of your hand on mine

  • figures of the night

    we sat and imagined fireflies

    flitting between the tops of the RVs

    as the sun disappeared into muggy,

    illicit sludge. we realized we both liked

     the sticky-sweet taste of summer

  • The sun

    you're not

    leaving yet. no,

    i'll glue your limbs to the pavement,

    lower your waving hand,

    tell you

    something to make your eyes crinkle

    again.

    again,

    again,

    again.
