Too long

So I knew about the demons you take with you.
Along with redefining need.
Here I am, here they are, here.
Coffee shop wisdom of youth,
humbling compassion turned to hear the care of a reckless friend who held on too long.
They new, he new, car crash inevitability looms unspoken.
Just so anyone reading into words knows,
I hold it because I couldn't land that dark spear down the centre.

Dirt

Guilt and an eye for beauty

Romanticise rail yards and dirty cups dipped back over a song
