I'm sure he meant well When he planned out my day But did my car Have to break down in the driveway When things get a start It always seems they'll stall Maybe soon I'll get a better hold On Mondays I'm sure he meant well When he planned put my day But I could have missed The muggers meetup in the subway Here as I sit Some lint to my name I wonder if I should have majored In the con game And I'm sure he meant well When he planned out my day But I really wish I’d seen that wet cement sign Here as I sink My bike undertow I wonder did I leave the lights on At home Someday soon I'll get a better hold on you

Business owner talking to the crowd Accused of some bad act, about to catch some flak Instead he cups his hands, says he'd like to do it again Had a view from our one room apartment Sally paints “rot in hell” on the dog Says she'll let it loose at the charity event School trumpets playing in the air Wondering if they ever will be in tune Through the window a frisbee greets my head Sally yells “I'll kill you hooligans” Opens the door and out goes the dog Saw it as an invitation to the park We searched for the damn dog all day long And when we got back the paint had begun to peel On a first glance it looked like His fur spelt out “not in hill” Packed on the couch with the Julia Roberts film Just the four of us me, you, and the mutt Oh yes and how could I forget Calmed by the breeze from the windowsill

A man comes along Is that a reason to start a fight He's done no wrong But wear some weird shoes on his feet Your eyes look up To face the fool But he walks past Paying no attention at all to you On to your porch pauses Checks the house number Opens the door Places a hat on the hangar What do you do Blood stains won't match the drapes no Plus it seems that he's a pro With all of your vintage cooking ware Should you kick him out That's right on the street Should you kick him out Making both of you home free Hell no man That's callous at best Why don't you Start charging him rent instead And while you're at it Go on an laugh about it Ask him out See if he will join you tonight for a drink

Watching a commercial For all of our lives She says December Like eating chalk with no chaser That's what's cool about therapy You learn so many analogies Clawing its way back A song from my youth, and it goes I need a white noise machine Of firetrucks and drunk singing To help me through this tepid silence Keeping me from causing violence If sarcasm paid Well I’d be elsewhere Saw a man dig his grave Then hop right in Those dark thoughts in the mud Why don't they ever come up clean I’m glad there's no time machines Or I’d probably want to pick a fight with me and Sometimes while on a river Following the flow of salmon With a leaky rowboat A rusty hubcap for all my steering needs

about

One day we swam in a lake,
and another in the ocean.
There was a day I started my first job,
and you quit your last.

And sometimes,
we even let the day be as it is.

You said you wanted to see it all again,
without gloss or the thin layer of laminate overtop.
So we bought a notebook,
tore off the wrapping,
and wrote
"let's start from the middle."
