Lies Are The Best Lubricant

Here goes one foot in front of the other.
The graffiti under my toes says "move along, you
are not wanted here"
I cock my spine and walk in false pretense
I never loved you, you know.
I just spouted like a cherry red fire hydrant whenever you
came around

And we slowly watched the words melt into summers

I never wanted you, you know.
I was just eager to finger your bluff
I sting your eyes.
And you fuck my heart with lies because its easier to
swallow then the vulnerable truth.
And so
one foot
strengthens the other by
placing them in sequence
one in front of the other
