We let the details sink in

Read every published account of

How the words at long last, erased from his mouth

When he encountered the bricks, replaced the venom and spit

We rekindled quiet where he language came out, let us dream

Oh when this creature leaves, let us dream

Let us dream

Wondering where anxiety went

Even if for a moment

We remembered sunblock for our palest skin and

Dad’s getting drunk again

Escape to the shore so population could breathe in less sulfur

I think its over

I think its over

Let us dream of when this creature leaves

We’ll travel in waves across states just to dance on your grave

Would love to see you rotting away

When will we see how far it goes, when will we see

And then Im reminded of a flaw in our reasoning

As much as I’d like to think he is just one

There are others in the fray, one man does not stand alone

There are many other who are dividing our homes

We do not only need a hurried goodbye

Yells in microphone with a salty closed eye

We do not only need a hurried goodbye from this sorry excuse

But also his allies

We sat there for hours hoping the hours were no longer shit

Still steady talking through a blur of endless days, blaming others for all of it

We sat there for hours hoping the hours were no longer shit

Still steady talking through a blur of endless days , blaming others for all of it

We sat there for hours, empowered our misery

We sat there for hours, empowered our misery

What small steps could we have taken today

We sat there for hours, hoping the hours were no longer shit.
