COMMON FEELING


I shook from not eating
Was a common feeling
One my dad bequeathed
That and half my artistry
I was weak
You reminded me of my father
Just a little though
It was mainly your chest hair pattern
You were uncut
And I liked we were the same size
We were the same size

Bound and determined
Now that mercury's done f-ing with my life
To shape up and ship out
No sea legs yet
That's what summer's for
I am so drawn to water yet so primally scared

I caught you peeking but I didn't mind
I found out that I was your next-in-line
Your next-in-line
I caught you testing new water with your toe
It was kind of exciting being the other man that he didn't know
