#300

We are springless
Summer waits
At the corner shop
Like a bully
Chasing pocket money
And you say you miss me
But I bite my nails
Uncertain 

Come to Life

You're not an early riser
You come to life at dusk
When I'm unwound
Humming below neutral
Battery rapidly cooling

You're not an early riser
You come alive at dusk
When I'm undone
Shifting between channels
Bones slowly creaking
