boogie oogie wookie

By swing_the_hammer

lip split- soft spot
i high. you not
?
focus pocus, cross me eyes
piano, play those lullabyes
don't get me wrong, the music's great
but it makes me
hallucinate
wherefore . andhow
pins and needles of the hand now
the universe
don't fight fair
and gravity just pulls my hair
we grow
old fast
no pure heart was made to last
spilt milk. soft serve
don't cry. mockingbird
...
time is nothing
to worry about
a small speck on your sleeve
i just hope the place i came from
is where i go
when i leave
