i only write poems on the bus anymore i sit far in the back to be alone i mark black things on white things in a black thing i try to make sense of it every time i see a plastic bag in the wind i think this is the most beautiful thing i've ever seen most of my life i relate to something on the tv this is how i try to make sense of it the talking heads song stop making sense is about a girlfriend caught cheating and willed oblivion the song's real title is girlfriend is better but lying about it is a way i try to make sense of it the day after i lost her i found you again your face made a plastic bag of my heart your eyes were the wind pushing the bus forward i could not make sense of it
