Tell Me Something

Tell me something --
something I shouldn't know.
Don't waste my time now --
I can't take that from you.

To act so proper
feels a bit like a sin.
How can you small-talk me
when you know where we've been?

I've tried and tried
to walk away
and maybe will someday.

So, what happened
to the intimacy?
We used to make love;
now you won't look at me!

Tell me what I did
so I can make it right.
If you deny me,
then I'm leaving tonight!

I've tried and tried
to walk away
and maybe will someday.

Another great tune from Butcher the Baker (LIKE us on Facebook).

Ostrich

Too afraid to stand and fight; Too much pride to fly away. Cowardice: immobilize Egos lacking skill to play! Games of conflict can’t be played By those afraid to deal a hand. Flightless birds avoid their call Ostriching heads in the sand.  Thanks, Trifecta for the prompt, which requested an animal name be used as a verb. I figured I might as well ignore the dictionary and make my own...flightless birds have always intrigued me, anyhow.

on the surface

on the surface of the moon my feet are as light as my cares tonight but my world's just as empty and the space just as dark and the moon dust obscures the best stars in the sky so I look deep inside and I search for deeper meaning but I've been running on bingo fuel since long before we landed. the craters are only deep enough to cradle my head as I lie down to cry or fall down to die -- time will answer that riddle
