Every good boy deserves
Death, and not just la petite kind
It shakes because we put quarters
in it
Teeth knocked to the floor
of the dream
Hoofprints I could follow to find you
If they could just build a Starbucks
here
Mollifying your disappointment
with the way things turned out
Mentioned in passing in a larger
article
Emergency room billboard
Requires a sympathetic character
Maybe if I slowly approach
Allowed to softly stroke the tall
white horn
Nothing is better than having a
coke with you
