finders keepers

by Evan Schafer

1.
Nice of you to catch me off-guard on a starry night when the sarsaparilla high turns to mania Nice of you to ratchet me down in a pirouette of a dancer with a sigh, it turns to the same old thing Shutter the windows Lock them up tight They went under the house and I swear I didn't see them It was a break-in, it was a breakup Finders keepers, such a useful ploy Nice of you to sing songs of old in the broad daylight when the porches creak and settle in Nice of you to fight for nothing in blase tones of a disappointed mother, it turns to the same old thing Nice of you to take the late flight when the winter creeps 35,000 feet can't keep you from going Nice of you to show up with your gun unannounced like a taper of a skull inward, it turns to the same old thing Nice of you to bury the bloody tools before your sister sees It's one step forward, then another Nice of you to wash down all the walls in a turning spiral of the cold spell dawning, it's always been the same old thing.
