Love Folds Poem by Coolwater Menstruums Shannon Daron Strauss

TOO HEAVY AND GONE BIRDY OVER MY HEAD

I WONT BE CATCHING THAT ONE, I'VE TRIED

MY MOUTH MY PEACE IN NO WAY AM I THINKING OF BREAKING BREAD

A WAR IS WHAT YOU'VE HEARD IF YOU'VE HEARD ANYTHING I'VE SAID....

I CAN'T CONTINUE LIVING THE MISCHIEVIOUS LIFE MY GOAL IS NOT A FLING BUT A WIFE

ALL THE DARK ROAD TRAVELS.... NOPE; FIND YOURSELF THE PERFECT MAN FOR THE JOB

FOR I AM NOT

INFACT I'M A DEAF MAN W/ A HEART OF STONES CARRYING THE BURDENS OF BEING YOUR CREEP

MY FOOT HAS MOVED, YET NOT SLIPPED- MY HEART HAS TOO LASTNIGHT I LISTENED TO IT SPEAK

IT SAID HERE ME NOW FOR LATER WILL BE TOO LATE

THE CONTINUAL SORROWS YOU CALL LOVE IS JUST A BIG MISTAKE

JUST LOOK OUT THE WINDOW SEE THE COUPLE STANDING THERE

ONESS... THE LANGUAGE OF THEIR BODIES SYMBOLIZE PEACE

THE LOVE YOU ARE CLAIMING NEEDS TO CEASE

IT'S JUST AN EMPTY CHAIR.... THAT NEEDS TO FOLD

INSTEAD OF SPREADING YOURSELF AROUND LIKE A BAY TREE.... TRY RESPECTING YOURSELF LIKE THE BREAD OF GOLD

ALL THE WHISPERS AND GRIPS IS MIND CONTROL

ITS UNACCOUNTED FOR.... AND STINKS LIKE ROTTEN FLESH

THE WAY SHE SAYS YOUR THE BEST, SHE HAS TOLD THE REST, AND IS GOING TO SAY TO THE NEXT

TEMPORARY REPROOFS FOR HER SHIP SHE'S WATCHED SINK

ALL THE PERVERSNESS AND HOT DISPLEASURES; I'VE BEEN A FOOL TO THINK

FORNICATION AND ADULTRY WOULD VALIDATE A HOUSE OF LOVE

IT'S ALL DECEIT AND CONFUSION BETWEEN PIGEONS AND DOVES

SO WITH THIS KNOWLEDGE MY HEART HAS SPARED, I'VE DECIDED TO PLANT THE SEED OF THE WISE AND LET GO

IN AN INSTANT- LOVE FOLDS
