Frogs

Failure

Sent away to have my


head checked


No more playing


in the sand


Frogs are leaping off


my brainstem


They don't seem


to understand





Roadside blurs against


a big bus


Face is slouched against


the glass


I am headed for


a cleansing


In a room without a bath





Didn't it seem


kind of silly


The way the doctor's


carried on so uptight





It's not bad being


so distant


I can live inside the gap


Frogs are hopping off


my brainstem


So excited to be sane





Didn't it seem


kind of silly


The way the doctor's


carried on so


Now that I've become


a monster to them


Have to keep their fear


turned on all night long





I've gone away to have


my head checked


I guess I need to have


it looked at
