THE HANGWOMAN
i remind her of someone she used to know
according to her he looked just like me
our hair like trampled grass
around our face like forest pathways
three of us
two in the present
one in passing
what happened to him, will it happen to me?
what happened to him, will it happen to me?
what happened to him, will it happen to me?
i remind her of someone she used to know
according to her he looked just like me
our voice like heavy hands
pull off the shoes of our tired madam
three of us
two jealous eves
one lonesome adam
what happened to him, will it happen to me?
the hangwoman doesn't speak
she has no answers and no questions
crying slithering on her cheeks
i remind her of someone she used to know
according to her he looked just like me
seperate siamese
uniting only in her dreams
the three of us
two see above
one cannot see
what happened to him, will it happen to me?
what happened to him, will it happen to me?
what happened to him, will it happen to me?
the hangwoman doesn't speak
i remind her of someone she used to know
i remind her of someone she used to know
