house maze

In a corner of your mind

mind the angels creeping up your spine

and tap along with me

if you're right then it's fine

but you could never know

you could only glimpse the feeling

the wall paper pulling back 

once more, the season

humid, sticky sheets

the wind, the window changing

with your favorite school photo

I'd make an album for the attitude you chose

White lies in the attic

leaking light bulbs across the hall

a shadow made human, 

a shallow slip towards the wall

I'd make a man out of you

I'd make a maze you drew

Sharpening your mind

with letters forged for the time

now the moment is gone, and you

have so much left to do with me

now the day is dark

and all I need is a night cap

and time to think
