Terami Hirsch pet

you bend
hello again
you're kissing sidewalk cracks
and when the night falls
she crawls
and you take her back
getting dirty on your way to heaven
never tasted quite like that
she pulls your strings
and you do things
like a smiling cheshire cat
and when you ride her into the sunset
you might be wise to tie her down
and make her your pet
she falls in love again
with the man who's on her tongue
but when you breathe
she'll steal your breath
and run
and when you ride her into the sunset
you might be wise to tie her down
and make her your pet
she can ride without you
if she tried
you think you're holding on to something
you couldn't hold her even if you tried
all her lies mean nothing
to your ears
she is mine, she is mine
you freeze
she stares through you
and you slip through her crack
but when the night falls
she crawls
and you take her back
and when you ride her into the sunset
you might be wise to tie her down
and make her your pet
