To Nelly Pooh
i'm a very strange creature
you're a very strange creature
we're all very strange creatures with strange
bodies
strange features
and
small animal souls
but
let's not forget how you were
when i was good
and all the whys and wherefores
do mat
ter
and how i would've been if he
weren't and I wasn't
and you weren't
happy though
lonely
penniless but not useless
cut off
but still listening
like a fox
in a box
in thick summer night
air
in the field
