Don't Sleep, I Know Just What You're Thinking
There is a child
wailing in the yard
I feel that
I feel that so hard
Woke up with shame
with weighted feeling of blame
for sleeping in
oh what a sin
I can't be grateful
for your thoughtful caring
when staring
at the manifestation of your generosity
I don't want to mean it
it's an inconvenience
(your generosity)
my emotions
are such a burden
as are my thoughts
to those to hear them
so begins a dervish
of whirling motivation
to purge this
wicked sensation
caused by thee elaboration
of my mental station
I wanna sanitize that part of me outta me
There is a child
wailing in the yard
I feel that
I feel that so hard
