Where I was at when I was 33... Recently I became familiar with Alex Stolis' work and soon his poems became part of my favorite collections. Check him out he is really awesome...
I got to talk to Alex 2 days before New Years and he let me use his words on News Years Eve...
Thank you Alex!
Lyrics
It was when I was looking for life
death soon became a consolation
You were annoyed with the map
but now you’d plot a thousand trips
just to have me driving your wheel
Sacredness in the hol-ey clothing
Sacredness in the stained sheet
Sacredness in my foamy toothpaste spit
Trying to catch slow moving happiness
I sat stranded in criminal confusion*
Daylight breaks eyes like prisms
Morning glory me!
Silver lining coat that’s shining
That’s how I’ll always be
I live weirdly
and I live strangely
Living on is living barely
I go so slow
but I’ve gone far
and sometimes I can’t remember how to drive my car
If your name escapes me
If your name escapes me
It doesn’t mean
It doesn’t mean
I don’t know you.
* Alex Stolis Thinking About You(Again)
