Jude Law is on TV

Jude Law is on TV and you're in bed
and tonight was great except when
it wasn't
and I am happy and pissed and don't care
as much as you do about NPR and who wins
the election
I feel fucked either way
today was more of the same
looking for work with no shine in my eyes
being surprised at the public library
more shit for the pile
the bile is building
but I am just shutting it all off
celebrating the small things
avoiding the huge things
realizing all the beauty inside
is only witnessed by myself
but you pinned the pressed down hard Crayola abstract
on white paper to your bulletin board
and told me I'm brilliant
I've heard it before
still rings hollow
I'll still follow the candy trail
everytime
and if there's crime in that
I am willing to burn.
