Triggerfish

We head in past the bar and order food they froze last night.
We sit down in our chairs and blow the conversation wide.
They're talking 'bout the ones they loved but nowadays despise.
They're talking 'bout the babies yet to squeeze between their thighs.
You know I'm making money cause I'm working on the side?
You know I cannot fail 'cause I never fall behind?
She says "I dress for women and I never dress for guys".
He's asking all these questions and I can't help wondering why?
I sidestep it with electrifying lies,
But then they take my hands and beg me to confide.
I tell these jokes 'cause I'm worried for my spine.
Like the triggerfish I'm locked in when I hide,
He's showing me these marks he made with needles on his thighs.
I watch her move her lips as she is looking in my eyes.
The walls are painted black and all the lights are too damn bright.
The snow is falling heavy on the walls and road outside.
You know I'm making money cause I'm working on the side?
You know I cannot fail 'cause I never fall behind?

Far from the Day

The day lies down and speaks its last,
Then the night comes out for what is left.
Peace be with night, for the day I pray
For the day is mad, it is vicious, it is sad and then it's dead.
Deep in the night,
Far from the day,
I open my eyes.
This place is falling to the ground,
But I'm giving guided tours,
And putting names to faces I don't see anymore.
We speak in different languages,
I learned mine a long time ago,
Oh a babel, fluttering and unstable into the night.
Deep in the night,
Far from the day,
Some things must go,
Some things can stay.
Deep in the night,
Far from the day,
Some things can go,
Some things must stay.
