Drinking Soup From Striped Mugs

from SLEEP SOUNDLY by Advrb

/

lyrics

as the music tickles our ears,
and we glance from lense to lense,
disappear, all of my fears,
at 45 r.p.m.s.
“thanksgiving’s coming...”
last november you sang it well
& more unknowingly
in love with you i fell.
now from everything & everywhere
subtle doubt creeps out.
however, i won’t let any fuss touch us.
“this fear- i understand- is love itself.”
we’ll read from the russian collection
listening to a cardboard packaged record
composed for egon schiele,
drinking soup from striped mugs,
watching films with jean-pierre leude,
giving long hugs
to you.
i won’t be discouraged by what my mother thinks.
i will make her remember eighteen,
i will make her nasty ship splinter and sink.
i won’t be hindered by odds against me.
i will fight them, overwhelm them,
mightily.
