WHERE THE LIGHT GOES
where the light goes
the furniture hurts you something fierce
when you bump into it in the dark
isn't there a light switch around here?
they told me on the street that the dimensions of this room
were body friendly
maybe i don't need to be in this room much longer
does this house have other rooms?
the air is on fire
the air just got fired
someone put out the air's fire
can you inhale burning air?
a traveling salesman comes pitching along
with a large jar full of light
come and buy some of my light, he says
it's a real good kind of light
you can bathe in it
you can comb your hair with it
how much does he sell this real good kind of light for?
well, he's got to make a living, doesn't he?
i'm afraid i don't have enough to pay for it
i'm afraid i just don't have enough
