In a Lake

““I'd never live in a small town / I’ve made too many mistakes / For where you gotta write your book early / Or it gets written up in your place / Where you never get away from your first love / It's like one brand of soap's sold in town / ‘Cause anyone you can get close to / Smells like your first time around” …and thusly I found the knife Mitski stealthily inserted into my heart. Or was I born with it already in place?”
