and what makes me the one to stop her? by Lauren Pearlshe dribbles blasphemy into the mouthpiece
weighted by the sunlight and stardust
she adds for special effect
lips touching, hands touching, hair touching
parts of your spine i only do in daydreams
she just can't keep her fingers under control tonight
and rumor has it, you've never had much
of a backbone to begin with. 07/09/2004 Author's Note: two-minute quick write.
