What Do You Want?

Why can’t you put it plainly?
Instead you’re standing on someone’s back patio
With a full moon backdrop, open mouth and open arms
Like you’re Jesus or target practice, singing your

Everything-and-nothing aria nobody can understand.
It riles me up, it gets my shoe-throwing arms in
Windmill motion, it makes me laserbeam a
Shut-the-fuck-up glare through the blinds 

And why am I standing up in my pyjamas giving a cat
A shut-the-fuck-up glare like cats can even decipher
Shut-the-fuck-up glares it's stupid, you're stupid,
Just go back to bed, turn over, wonder

When was the last time I yelped and yowled?
When was the last time I asked for something 
Just to hear my own voice
Ask it out loud?
