Let's Pretend
Let's patch it up
Like we always do
Let's hobble along
In our 'invisible' mess
Getting by
Day to day
Getting by
Fucking hell! -
We are
Getting by!!
'Getting on with life'
Getting on with the surface of things
Holding up our rotting skeleton
With this flimsy pretty outer skin
Can't you see! -
That this is the wrong way round?
This body of ours
That we keep alive
By sticking it with
Mounds
And
Mounds
And
Mounds
Of inadequate plaster
While underneath...
We secretly know...
That the vessels of our 'Love'
Are
Bleeding
Bleeding
Us to death
Bleeding
'Us' into nothing
Killing us -
As individuals -
As one
I rarely feel
Such genuine affection
As I promise you I do
But...
...
And yes... Like any
Good
Marriage
We have our sturdy building blocks
But good God!-
We have been busy all this time...
Building
Building
Building -
Blocking
Blocking
Blocking
Slowly
Surely
Definitely
We are dying.
Fools.

Perhaps thats as good as it gets

And then again perhaps not
