We Measure a Song By Its Refrain
How come what sticks
sticks.
How does the picture
gather magic
and your devotion.
Plop gravel
in your pan, and shake,
get down
to the black sand and
gold.
Why is what’s darker
heavier.
Ask the wrestlers how
they make
weight, you have to run
and wear
a trash bag. A song boils
down, you
are left with one of two
elements:
I am with you, or I am not
with you.
Exactly. And some songs stick forever.
