just once or twice

it's good for your soul

moth on the ceiling - fluttering
moth on the ceiling - come in from the light

no life left to live on the outside
no heart left to give in the bright side


paint thick and peeling - grayed and dull
paint thick and peeling - the years have gone by

layer by layer, through to the inside
on to the bottom, the wall is at low tide


the rain outside makes me want to stay
in bed watching from the window today
waiting for an obvious sign
to open up and let it in
