Night Surfing LyricsYou like
night surfing
driving ducatis
911 carreras
and working 15
hours in a row
Thrill seeker
lover of flesh
hot-blooded man
no one can impress
except me
because
I already have
everything I need
and because
the things
you love
scare me
I am unbendable now
You ask if
poetry is dead
Your questions
linger in my head
You are a good
question asker
Effervescent
like my father
But I protect
myself now
as if I were
my daughtеr
I’m no lamb to the
slaughter I can
no longer faltеr
Cannot trick
my heart to
see you as a
seed to water
But you’re joyous
and an expert in
drawing dreams
out of dirt
on the coast of
Malibu to the
secret place
you took me to
that only had
an outside loo
Nothing for miles
but baby blue
You’re macho
and you’re fragile
Egoic, fit and
agile from all
the night surfing
(which vexed me)
But I can’t explain
why that’s sexy
