I once saw a man
So red
I thought he was a sunset
In the middle of July
His teeth shined
Like melting icebergs
And you could just tell
That crying
Was the only way he knew
How to say good morning
He stared into the cracks in the concrete
Hoping to find another world
Another side
To his story
But he just got lost in the ground
In the swirls pills could give him
In the lost
That he found
Long long ago
I once saw a man
So red
I thought his heart
Was outside his body
I would’ve been right
If his heart
Hadn’t lost all its red
