Lock me down
Take away the key
Keep me from where I need to be
All the spillage of the imprint circles
Time creeps over the lacquered tabletop
Tick tock
Lock them down
Take away their key
Keep them from where they need to be
Focused eyes shift with recognition
Familiar bare breasts stare backless in the evening shade
Pearls will sway from the dotted lampshade
Lock us away
Keep the beasts at bay
Listening is the only curse
Clank goes the whistle
Missing the accordion
Table dancing past midnight
Lock it down
Spirits kept me at bay
Tried all the glasses after all.
