Glove You Too

Paschal Wilson

I am the operator I come to operate I come to cut while you hibernate
I am the nursery lady I shave my legs smooth like baby I come to give you milk and honey
I am the bed You make me red Do you call that blushing?
I am the button You press for suckin’ Except I make you go to sleep
I am the feeling I am the ceiling I am the healing Marshmallow fellow
I am liquid sugar I am high fructose porn syrup I am coming from nothing All over my pillow
I am sedation I am seduction I am getting breast reduction I am asleep again Touch me where I shall not function
I am asleeeeeeep I dream a dreeeeeeeeam Of making creeeeeeeam
Under the covers here I feel my someeeeeeeething I don’t know whaaaaat thing It’d be disgussssssssting If I could seeeeeeeeeeee
I am asleeeeeeep I cannot dreeeeeeeam And now I neeeeeeeed Smack on my peeeeeeeeen My baby sheeeeeeeeeee Has made me sleeeeeeeepy
I wake a new A button on my shoe I feel as good as you With my brand new screws
Then I see a friend again Hugging friends till the end Now I’m bleeding I wonder if I ever stopped I wonder if my stitches have stayed in
I’m cut again It hurts like burning off my skin It cuts like cuts is providence But I pretend Cause he’s my kin That hugs are hugs And cuts are friends But secretly I’m reacting To the stab wound
It takes me back Smack town laying, laying down smack Smack that ass and hoot and holler, not my favorite way to bother
I drift into sticky make believe Where touch is what I want And sleep is coming after I never knew Some cuts are true
Open me up I’m fun inside I have lots of love inside I have lots of drugs inside My system when I sleep.
Open up my arms and legs Open up my Sudafed Open up my inside out While outside’s fitting in.
Hang me from the clothing line Hang me from a parking fine Hang me from the IV in my Newfound wired alibi.
I want what will feel me good Whatever you think feels me good Everything feels good to me I sleep.
Now I am just a junkie I’d fuck anyone for money Because money is the closest thing To liquid legal milk and honey
But I get by on sticks and clams I won’t get raped by the candy man Here’s my 10 year long retirement plan
I’ll move myself out to the desert And I’ll get high on sand and lizards So when I turn 30 I can Finally feel my lonely hands
I’m sorry if I said I loved ya I just gloved cause I can’t touch ya If you try to touch me I will Burn down here to Alabama
One day I will come on back My lady will give heart attack When she says we can finally fack After 20 years of doing smack Smack down dreams are always creamy Smack down dreams are always screamy Smack down dreams are realizing I’m not coming Tonight.
“Feelings” are
1: tactile 2: imaginary 3: something else
Imagine feeling your feeling of feeling and it feels like something else
Imagine how I feel
Imagine feeling the touching the finger that’s touching the touch that feels
Imagine that from your bellybutton to your butt
Imagine me consistently seeking some degree of pain relief And all I get is sedated For the betterment of my community
There’s just no word for the feeling that blurs through sleep and wake and mind and body
Nerve damage, Imaginary pain, Psychosomatic, Lying
What a life It’s like it didn’t hurt until I realized
It’s like wiping the blood from Above your eyes Before you know You’re bleeding dry
This will be my battle cry Tonight I will try To sleep good on my side
