lyrics

I’d say we missed out
From posing endlessly
Shot in a light that was insufficient for the subject in its context
Resolution, emulsion, and a red, dark room eye
Veruschka says she’s in Paris. And me?
I’m trying to solve a murder!

Fleshed out and contoured
To fit your narrative
Of how you carried through disproportioned scores of antiquated titles
What was I supposed to do
With all this surplus regret?
I believed what you wanted us to
A composition of nothingness

And the time we had was had by all
But at least it wasn’t dull
For the calisthenics and widespread dissension
Was enough to out us all.
Locked in groups of two and set aside
For a time when it slows down
We’ll reassess what it means to “lie.”

“There’s nothing like a little disaster
For sorting things
Out;” and into a frame holds your fate. I’m finding
Another hair has split another lip
Celebrate in the knowledge that maybe you were right, all along……maybe
