breathe shallow

introductions necessary
because none of you know me.
and yet i stand before you, speaking...
"what a bother" you think.
"i wish this guy would shut the fuck up".
so where do i start?
my name? my name is tommy.
like the rock opera... only quieter.
there. did that change anything?
just a word... labeling nothing.
or do you know me now?

we are in the halls.
striding past the truth.

fast forward_
shimmy shimmy shimmy shimmy
shimmy shimmy shimmy
shimmy
break__
word. true that.
i'm tired___

FOR THOSE WHO ARE SICK WITH LOVE- TAKE SHALLOW BREATHS
