The Lengthening of Your Arms


the lengthening of your arms is getting to me

i dont think you've noticed but they're inching closer to the ground week on week

by next year you'll drag your knuckles and be surprised


you're spending more time in the woods

so you're either hanging from high branches

or holding onto roots and being pulled into the sky


maybe you do know and you're scared to tell me

maybe its part of a plan you have without me

but either way its happening
