Winks and Nods

Is there something more
you'll die just to see?
Like something mythic lore
with the pulling of a wrist
over and over again...

Now look!
I've seen more than I can handle
of the winks and nods repeated.

Turn your head until tuned
and let it drop
out of public view
for the fuck of it.

Now look!
I've seen more than I can handle
of the winks and nods repeated.
While I'm trying to do the things
we're all warned not to
learn to pursue the things
that make you happy.

All that I see is a shoulder to your grave.
