the sunny side of normal

[Alan Sondheim]

the sunny side of normal
shoutout to gabe kristin joe & the rest

glass-block of soviet apartment complxes
a good cup of java

when you look out of the window < behind the glass
on a very sunny day < before the glass
and you're falling back to dreamland < within the glass
you'll whimper and you'll say < beneath the glass
"i want that good sweet coffee
i want it just right now
i'll sing this song so softly
i'll meditate on tao
get up talk a blue streak
and drink another cup
right now my brain is at its peak
i've got my dander up"
i looked out from that window < right through the glass
on that very sunny day < under the glass
and looked up what's a dander, < beyond the glass
and my anger, particles, flaked skin, < inside the glass
taking a walk, got away. < next to, or adjacent to, the glass
