I always wanted to be commander-in-chief of my one-woman army, But I can envision the mediocrity of my finest hour. - Ani DiFranco

and I try
to draw the line
but it ends up running down the middle of me
most of the time.

I build each one of my days out of hope
and I give that hope your name

'cause I know there is strength
in the differences between us
and I know there is comfort
where we overlap

come here
stand in front of the light
stand still
so I can see your sillouette
I hope
you have got all night
'cause I'm not done looking,
no, I'm not done looking yet

when you come to me
come to me with cake
in your pocket
come to me nicely
with that soft kinda cake
that's mostly icing
come to me ready and rude
bring me angel food
