swing set

we were at

the swing set

'now?' i asked

'not yet.' you said

turnin' round and round in my seat

chains chiming over my head

when the tension is complete

and there is no way out of it

'now?'

'not yet.'

'now?'

'not yet.'

over the rise on the lawn

someone dragging someone

the kid looking me in the eye

teacher not looking at anyone

'now?'

'now! yes!'

'now?'

'now! yes!'

i looked behind me only once

didn't see nobody chasin' us

just my swing dancing in the sun

dancing wildly where it was

'now.'

'now

yes.'

'now.'

'now

yes.'

now

yes.
