Locks

Talk is cheap
words are powerful
A penny for your thoughts
a thousand words for your photograph

Believe everything you hear,
review later
Suck up and lower your standards.

Just kidding.

The lock of saying no
locks on diaries
locks on safes
locks in hair
locks in canals
locks on doors

I hold the key to the lock on my will
It hangs aroung my neck
I can't give it away
I fidget

To unlock is to weaken
I am the cathedral's janitor
I hold the key ring
I hold the master key

continuously
moment by moment
decision, decison
some people don't need to lock their doors

I left my keys on the seat
the freedom of yes
the freedom of no
the danger of yes

open doors, closed doors

Is my heart covered in diamonds yet?
The body's many cries for water
oils upon oils
an alabaster jar

Boundaries
Rubber walls with nothing inside
Emergency kit with no cure
Stand right behind the line

I want to slam the door on dogs in the night
To draw a rough line with a red pencil
A circle around me
It's better to be away
