And Everything Was Opposite
and everything was opposite
like a mismatched pair of shoes
what I thought was coming
would be what I would lose
and everything was opposite
like looking into water
you'd think you'd see another dog
and drop your very last quarter
and everything was opposite
named well with tidings few
tomorrow was the same and
yesterday I thought anew
and everything was opposite
the love that in me burned
with no anticipation of
the apathy returned.
