Tomcat Disposables

Will Wood

6

I have mapped the cupboards and drawers

Tracked the least walked spots on the floor

Happy to be home, safe and warmThe shadows by their feet

The odd vanishing treat

Quietly eating while they sleep

So here′s where I'll be raising my kids

If I can find someone to start a family with

Till then, I′ll dream of the day my odds and ends fit

I'll wake up, there'll be food on the stove

Forever and never want for more

Is thеre cheese in the grеat beyond?

Rinds of parmesan

Wine to water, night from dawn

Life gets short, our teeth grow long

Mind me not, and I′ll

Mind my own, and my mind′s

Not one bite smaller or lesser than yours

Do I belong in right and wrong?

Nature, I guess

One night, one flung light through this place

So I run for cover, over, under, left the rind out on the plate

Little heart racing and praying, "Something keep me safe"

I think it's on my face

Okay, one hungry day

Is nothing come what may

But then winter came inside for three nights

Left me grinding my teeth between my walls

And gripping my dreams tight

Curled up, kept my head up, and put up the fight

I′ll make it through again

I have before

C'mon now, what′s one more?

Is there cheese in the great beyond?

Rinds of parmesan

Wine to water, night from dawn

Life gets short, our teeth grow long

Mind me not, and I'll

Mind my own, and my mind′s

Not one bite smaller or lesser than yours

Do I belong in right and wrong?

Nature, I guess

Spring bloomed in the kitchen again

So I crawled out of the wall and, squinting

Saw hope on the stovetop

Just like I'd always imagined it

More than I could eat

My dreams were finally reality

My struggles had a happy ending

They must want to be friends

My stomach starts to turn

With thirst, why does it hurt?

My just dessert is served again

So I stumble back to bed

Something's not quite right

Guess I′ll just go rest my head

Now, as I lay me down to sleep

I expect no dreams

And no sweet goodbye to me

Flatline in the morning light

I held on so tight

For so long, it′s just not right

Let a sigh out as I close my eyes

Was that all there was to this?

What's for the best?

Is there cheese in the great beyond?

What′s the moon made of?

Meet me there after I'm gone

Life gets short, our teeth grow long

Mind me not, and I′ll

Mind my own, and my mind

Held the same light as the one in your eyes

Do I belong in right and wrong?

One dies alone, and why? Don't know

Goodbye, so long

To mice in holes

Nature, I guess

Nature, I guess

Nature, I guess
