Swallowing the Daze

[Laura]

A/N: woohoo first one to post a new poem since it reopened. No formatting again, if you didn't read my recently posted lyrics, I have been writing either messy or aggressive. This falls under messy

Swallowing the Daze

trouble
you're a mouth of trouble, swallow
too much
the saliva gathers at the edges of your
silvery pine top lips like snow chapped mountains
in the spring,
the winter's too cold to see

your bottom lashes are painted with more shades
count each one
separate the black from red from purple
with blue and green shadowing the tints

spastic, little burst of energy
realize now I'm looking at you

upside down.

OH
but the clock keeps on going
around the carousel
and slippery like margarine when melting

too much sun,
much like everyone
we've ran out of fun -------
"nee" things to say.

OH
the clap was a quick slap
no importance for the significance
running around like they're made out of kites

a dragon cape
wrapped up in tape
we've used the escape -------
route to get away.

OH
and I realize now
I'm looking at you

up
side
down.

I liked that. It was crazy and spastic and all over the place and I adored it.

"spastic, little burst of energy
realize now I'm looking at you

upside down"

I love that, and the way it's put at the end.

This is gonna sound silly, but for some reason this seemed like one of those little rhyme-whatevers that you'd say while jump roping...
