I am free in the tight space
Look at me without staring
And talk as if I were a child
Who knew everything too soon
If you must, bend the naked facts
In a way that apologizes
For itself, which is something
We all have trouble doing these days
But don’t let the mystery overlap the evidence
This porcelain head cracked long ago
And I’m scattered, but together for you now
So, speak your mind
Look at me without staring
And talk as if I were a child
Who knew everything too soon
If you must, bend the naked facts
In a way that apologizes
For itself, which is something
We all have trouble doing these days
But don’t let the mystery overlap the evidence
This porcelain head cracked long ago
And I’m scattered, but together for you now
So, speak your mind
