If I Can’t Have You
Attempt-to-locate
In the American bush
Over lunch at the Old Country Buffet
Or among the road runners
And the occasional lizard
Outside the Pacific Northwest’s
Premier cosmetology school
Where it looks like someone
Has decapitated a squad of cheerleaders
Some creepy sleazy nasty man
Swinging manic
Employees describe him as annoying
He’s not going to the Celestial Kingdom
That’s for sure
The trauma and drama arousing and nostalgic
Resisting solutions
Praying like crazy
That she’s normal happy and safe
As indicated by scripture
A Leak In The Safe
