Jar Flies

Radiating life
Clicking in the trees
Listening for
A fluttering of wings
Not all old habits have to break
I can play this game of hangman all night
Guessing letters while she draws the noose
Every line you draw
Every stroke of heat
Brands my side
In hurried ecstasy
Tenacious honey bee
Buzzing collecting
The sticky sweet
To bring home to the queen
Not all old habits have to break
I can play this game of hangman all night
Guessing letters while you draw the noose
I can play these games with you all night
Anything I can do to amuse
I can play these games with you all night
Anything I can do to amuse
Never letting on how much I love you
Letters fall like stars shaking loose
