Stick Around (Love May Come Tomorrow)

Stick Around (Love May Come Tomorrow)

Love may come tomorrow, bone,
the way this is going.

Devil's drink takes all night,
in this tomcat mirror.

It happened a long time ago,
now you don't have a shadow.

The ground is grinding,
a screaming soap opera.

There were little flowers
at the ruined ritual,
she wore horn-rimmed glasses.

There were skeletal mushrooms
in the mystery rain.

Fate has been a bad girl,
a long time ago.

a long time ago,
elevator memory,
of the red cavalier.

Back back back to you.

You had some great style,
taught me to feel the karma
in this season,
tasting the flavor.

The sun moves in circles like an animal,
blind leader of the Immortals,
she forgot that things follow.

I feel the Atlantic east.

Then she floats on the edges of clouds,
as she sleeps.

-Will Dockery (1996)
