We\u2019re on the highway to Spring Grove.
All the leaves have fallen off of the trees.
The road is littered with the unfortunate carcasses
Of skunks and squirrels and stupid fucking raccoons.
Let\u2019s stop in the next town and buy helium filled mylar balloons
That say \u201cget well soon.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Houston smells like cow shit:
Everyone drives thirty miles an hour.
A Toyota Prius is in my fucking way.
It\u2019s always a fucking Toyota Prius,
That ends up in my fucking way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s almost as if they\u2019re all heading nowhere
It\u2019s almost as if they have nowhere to be.
I wonder why people people even live out here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You held my hand on a chilly Minnesota night
Without any other cars or people in sight
Not even a stray deer my headlights had captured.
I wondered, is this the apocalypse or the rapture?
If it is then I know what has happened to all of the animals
And I\u2019m afraid you and I are in very big trouble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not knowing how long we\u2019d behold our gaze
Whether we\u2019d hold each other in our hearts
For what would only be a few moments
Or until the end of time?
Just like we had all the other times before,
J\u2019 adore. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
They seem to know,
That in order to survive
They should not run out in front of my car.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
