San Diego Exburbs Serenade
Never felt the floor ’til I got down on my knees. Never saw the forest ’til they burned down all the trees. Never missed the bakery ’til they banned making bread. Never saw things your way until I put on your head. Never really heard your voice ’til you never called. Never grew my hair [...]

All We Have Left is the Wall (song lyrics for a song unlikely to be recorded)
walking like a stalagmite planted and tall making bats sounds that get lost in the squall we’re all through with the slow steps we’ve made our dragging footprints now all we have left is the wall boosting like a booster with no boost left wishing that the fuses weren’t all lost to petty theft we [...]
