Charm Of Doledrums

The mirror bends

In the worthwhiles of the world

In the fun house world

I have no fun

I don’t catch the joke

I’m just a heavy truth in the wavy glass

They tip their top hats

They tap their tiptoes to my fingertips

Skipping like a stone

Across a sea of shimmering glass

Across a vacant and dull desert

The mirror bends

Replacing ideas to the sun

Casting my worthless world

I’m blasted down like eggs onto the pan

I say ta-ta from the floors of my heart

To the balance of my fingertips

I’m vacant to you all

Like the sands my stone tiptoed down

A thousand miles of despondencies trail

I knuckle under to the mirror

The glass bends

Spits my stone across its face

Across a spine of sizzling sand

The mirror bends

The waves under the sea
