let's_stick_together
raze i dreamed a dream
in which this record
was split at the seam
perfect in its coming apart
and when the needle grazed
its glossy skin somehow
it spoke to me still
in old songs made
new by the same voice
that birthed them

the man on the cover
didn't smile or scowl
he simply stared
at something i
couldn't see
and wouldn't ever
burn or be
