despondent response

mist covers everything and
anything and i'm always shouting
yes at the top of my lungs but i'd like to
be just myself for a few moments
especially now

yesterday i didn't wait in the gray
of the parking lot
under a mardi gras decked tree
ruined by some sort of facade
easily

would you really change the
rain? you think you're so
observant, so poetic, so edgy
not even close, baby, and i am just as
gorgeous as you see

well, i had just written a thing that was sort of in response to your thing, and then this thing has "response" in the title, so i was like, another response?
uh yeah

If this is in response to what I think it is (which it's probably not) then it's freaking fantastic. Even if it's not I really like it.

I WAS RIGHT!
You tell 'er.

kerri, if i was going to type up an incensed rant about you, i wouldn't TELL you it was about you.

JK LOL

sorry, i thought the jk lol indicated that. and also the fact that i am not that mean. it's not about you.
