Your back curves like a creeping vine, 
With the answers in the fluid in the stem of the spine, 
In the black-coffee bowl of your eye, 
Why do you overestimate the size of the lie? 

I've seen 
The dangers of your rising sign, 
But I swear 
I'd like to drink the fuel straight from your lighter
It's all inside the wrist, 
It's all inside the way you time it 
I resent the way you make me like myself 

My nerves jump like a boiling pan, 
Like a skillet full of oil spits rattling on the burner, 
When I stumble onto the thought 
Of the match you lit and dropped 
And set the dial to slow yearn 

Can I spell it out? 
Should I spell it out?
