I’d say I’m a bright woman,
I have some senses and some wits and
let me tell you
there is nothing more believable than when you’re all
wound up on nerves and whiskey and
you tell me how you feel.
I believe you like I believe in a punch to the stomach.
There is a hunger here, wanting to be the one who gets hurt and survives it.
I’m a bright woman and I know when
the time is up.
I’ve known the entire time. I let you do things on your own terms
and help when I can.
I even go to the store,
buy you the bottle of whiskey
and call it a gift.
