Take a lightbulb from the closet
Replace the one above the faucet
Scrape the whiskers from my face
Nick my lip in pointless haste

Take a magicmarker black
Darken a spot on the map
Of a county on the coast
Where i was born out of a ghost

Underneath a ceiling fan
Contemplate a master plan
Breathe a sigh of recognition
For a childhood superstition

Push a thumbtack in the wall
Pierce the picture i did draw
It's a graphic portrait from my youth
It hurts my heart this forced review
