Next Stop--Bad Poetryville

by bru

I wish I was brave enough
To throw everything away
But I've too many buttons
Holding everything together
(sewing them back on when they've fallen off)

Running away to Sacramento has been done
(so many times before)
The only appealing aspect--
it's not here.
(i would write you)

Running to Sacramento has been accomplished
(too many times before)
I'll go somewhere new
And wait for the next time
That I think I'm brave enough
To throw everything away
