love me lovely lover girl
on ships that carry foreign herbs
before each touch becomes absurd
lonely only in a lonely world
tease me, please me, feed me cheese
call me after decades without pause
before i stumble on a cause
to hide in leaves of deceiving trees
suffering is a patient dog
glass has grown stronger from misuse
threats didn't change the unchanging fog
the lost didn't become tough to lose
and dreams were patterns of a rug
and dreams were dreams of rugs i'd choose
