Two Tigers

In the age of endless opportunity,
Mindless disco will deliver me to you, across the room,
It’s a conversation with no listening,
Lifted lyrics from a singer with the blues,
They sound new
You can make a plan and I will follow it,
Burn the map and draw an audience to laugh at our tracks,
They run side by side like tangled arteries,
Come together abstract imagery in blood,
And give up
Hunt you down I know that you want me to,
Carve your heart and eat it in front of you,
Run, run, run to the edge of the earth,
Two tigers joined at birth
Calculation in our chemistry,
Fortune telling tasseography, that speaks through your leaves,
Tell me every story that you’ll ever write,
Shaking branches in the power lines at night,
It’s alive
Hunt you down I know that you want me to,
Carve your heart and eat it in front of you,
Run, run, run to the edge of the earth,
Two tigers joined at birth
