–
how do i become simple
when tossed aside
like a ship tossed in the channels.
why can’t you
meet me part way
in my complexities,
where the eyes
tell a different story.
maybe i just need
to walk on a little country road
and find my mind,
amidst the dust –
like a pickup that peels out
amidst its tracks.
wouldn’t it be nice
to look for a little high
for a far-reaching smile
to keep me hanging on.
but it sure would be nice
if you came along
like a little country song
with a country moonlit serenade
leaving me a little wild
in the neon
where the night danced.
