to talk to talk to talk and only to talk
if only to talk if only we could talk
talk and use it all its got to be there some
articulation
i am embarrassed because i just shut off
and i don't want any worries about any kind of talk i don't want to
swallow and be trained in that kind of talk
i don't want to kick in my teeth for the quiet you seem to be bound in
and i can't cut it
whatever it is to be split
i swear i never asked for it
i thought i was ready for talk like this
but i'll hide it i know
i'll put it in the back where nobody's checking in
or on the things that i keep under paper and dust
with the string tied around it
no seeing you wouldn't fix this
i am buried inside
in this way
i can't tell you
so i can't blame you for your quiet
you must know
there will be thing that i'll never say
or maybe that is giving you too much credit
do you even consider it? oh how should i know
i throw out the tongue turn in the teeth and do all horrible things with the throat
you know there isn't any reason to keep on trying
to talk when we can't talk and there isn't any
talking around
or thing to be talked on now
since we've gone to bed securely in the quiet i trust you understand
and probably take refuge in
i am embarrassed of throwing me out over and over again
