Down The Pyramid

list creased and yellowed
crossed off your name
still set on finding who is to blame

back to the country
you made yourself
broke all the windows 
it didn't help

don't feign to look under the table 
don't ask me what things I would change
I'm already testing your patience
and it's coming apart at the seams

one 
step
turn 
to see
I'm catching on something 
I shouldn't be asking
the asphalt beneath me 
it wouldn't believe me

there's nothing to go on
since you moved away from 
the room with the curtain 
that made you so certain
