Mongrel
Hours you've been gone
You are frightening me
Brush on the lawn
The order of all things
You're not even fooling yourself lacing your shoes so tight
I can hardly vouch for myself while my hands are untied
"It's a crime of passion" you whisper with each blow
Suddenly I'm learning where the sick dogs go
It's the order of all things, so-
Buddy, I think you're sick
Buddy, I think you need some help
I often speak in second person
Because I frighten myself
