Bamboo Blues
Jan Juránek
Yes yes yes!
I know!
I've heard this one way before
Not that it was funny the next two hundred times
Just, don't, okay?
Can you do that?
Can you not speak the way you always spoke
You grew me out and I outgrew you
Stuck in this bizzare literary purgatory
With the person who kept me in when now I want out
I kept my distance and now you're all in my face
Perhaps I could've been kinder to you
Perhaps this all could've been avoided
I can't tell, but let me ask you this;
Can- can- You can hear me?
Yes.
And - do you - fear me?
Not anymore I don't.
