The Lines Are Down
July 27, 2009
One lonely man
At a payphone in the dark
Paying to be heard
under the glow of one light
As if that were enough
It takes more than light
To wrench the shadows from this
midnight paradise
Well-beaten paths are only tame guidelines
So he’s wandering the wilds with no
destination in mind
Just walking along in obscurity’s dominion
Never so free
Never so overwhelmed with insecurity
