Alexander from Jangle Omega by Other Houses

Alexander showed me the ark on the wall in my mind
and the dimensions were convincing.
He showed me the desert heat, numerology in my mind.
It was precious but I was restless, okay?

Your life unfolds into a speck in the air.
Do you care?
Baby’s careless with evidence.

While I pretty much do what I want
I can’t stop.
It’s more fun,
all keyed-up like a wind-up bluebird.

It never fails, the easy fix to survive.
I don’t mind.
I wrote my name on a spire
on the riverbank,
in Chinese characters.
Now I flail through LA unbidden.
It's my decision.

Do you take whiskey?
Do you take tea?
How are we, how are we, how are we?
What I’ve seen I can’t forget
So picture me, picture me, picture me.

Alexander drove me out,
he showed me how,
we checked it out,
how the blessed river I will never know still trickles down.
Yet I know he thought of me.
