He wears a rain coat and carries the heart
In a clear plastic bag in his hands
I stretch my body and groan
Here it comes again
I know the story
Know the signs
I open the fridge
Find the plastic tub
And cut
The refrigerator gives just enough light to see
But not to see enough
I count out seven
Line up
Taste
Wipe
And do
What I do
You know
I stretch my body and groan
I am in the library
We have
Books
Music
DVDs
Coffee
And
Help
I go there
I find the books the music the DVDs
Press the button for coffee
But I cannot find the help
I hold the counter
The car drives by
Experts in exhausts
I can’t stop it
Flag it down
I wipe my fingers on my shirt
Drink some water from the tap
Close the fridge
Here it comes again
And as he comes again so my heart falls in the bag
Stolen or safe
I am not sure
My blood drips off the rain coat
Disappears in the puddle
Up the straw
Into the nooks of the fridge door
I know the story
Know the signs
I stretch my body and groan.
