Dillon: Thirteen Thirtyfive




Strongest taste
loudest drop
head is filled
the thought, unlocked 
Strongest taste
loudest drop
head is filled
the thought, unlocked 
Strongest taste
loudest drop
head is filled
the thought, unlocked 
Strongest taste
loudest drop
head is filled 
you'd be thirteen
i'd be thirty-five
gone to find a place for us to hide 
be together but alone
as the need for it has grown
a cave or a sheda car or a bed
a hole in the ground
or a burial mound
a bush or a tree
or the aegean sea will do for me 
for you i found a ventin the bottom of a coal mine
just enough space for your hands in the inside
if you go
do let me know 
a den or a dessert
perhaps an ink squirt
a cellar, a wishing well, a war
or a guarantee will do for me 
for you i found a cell
on the top floor of a prison
just enough space for you to fit your feet in
if you go
please let me know
