i remember a girl on her cellphone
surrounded by her friends
eyes flickering, she's trying
to smother her smile in her hands

is it someone for us
someone more worry-free
someone who can say
"leave the worrying about him to me, Josephine"?

i remember you there in the last rays
of light at diplomacy's end
eyes flickering, you're crying
but isn't this when the crimes begin?

when the people you want to, don't
and the people who do
you don't believe
do you Josephine?

i remember you there at the table
surrounded by all the days plans
eyes flickering, you're trying
to let a coffee cup warm your hands

maybe we're born lost
born to perserve
but honey i'd walk into your painting
until i reappeared

as a speck of comet-tail dust
a blue-green northern light
flickering just

in your eyes' deepest ravines
goodnight, goodnight Josephine
