If you tell me that /
following my feelings ain’t/
needed, I may stop.
Or
When you tell me that /
following my feelings ain’t/
needed, should I stop?
following my feelings ain’t/

If you tell me that /
following my feelings ain’t/
needed, I may stop.
Sunny skies, flowers,/
fields: Green and Gold’s our colors./
It sure isn’t blue.
It’s easy to see/
that which can kill you: Harder/
to leave it alone.
When you’re 40 pounds/
overweight and you try to/
play, you might break stuff.
It’s sad that, many/
years later, she can make me/
feel despicable.
The music which flows/
from her soul knows* what her mind/
can’t articulate.

mind-numbing, thought-boring, I/
ask how to escape.
You know you’re deep in/
the Bible Belt when billboards/
can quote Hosea.
One nice thing about
Southern back porch pickin’
is that you can enjoy some mighty fine music
even when you’re not invited over
to set for a spell.
