Fool Heart

love is amusement, amusement is love

invoking

the difference

we make our own lyrics

to make the difference

between you and me

matter

more today

than tomorrow

and sometimes to a fault

. . .

so between you and i

as the very same things

in very different clothes

i'll be insulted

just for fun

and maybe i'll take your pride

and shove it up your backside

just for kicks

and maybe then you can watch me

drown dramatically

inside my own

like a joke full of hicks

and very stupid idiots

or maybe

we can become fool's for a dollar

together

trapped in some ironic

boat of made up conclusions

outside of the millions

and billions and billions

of lives. . .

that, out of spite

we will choose to ignore

(for nothing)

                   at the very same time
