The difference between ideas and notions
Lakes and oceans
Something about salt content
The width of mouths
The length of certain fingers
The art of palm reading and tarot cards
Chiromancy, I’m told
A straight flush. Go fish.
I really don’t think we did it right
As deep as only a pen can cut
China in a bull shop and a finely crafted thousand yard stare
Broom and dust pan on hand
Passed down from generation to generation
Armor out of found bits of papier-mâché and lacquer
Holster hand hovering
Greedo versus Han
and the zombies in our heads
Fanning the hammer to send them off on their way
To draw water from a poisoned well
The pale horse whom follows hell
and the cart set before her
Constellations look nothing like they’re supposed to
And that,
ladies and gentlemen,
was the straw that pushed the camel through
Powder kegs teetering precariously
Working class heroes and farmers’ daughters
Certainly no room for dogs
Eggshells and bubble wrap
Breaking under the very same amount of pressure
Blood and physics
A gust of wind to help us on our way down
Fell asleep waiting for the car to warm up
Billy Pilgrim’s mum
Absolutely Dickensian
Wealth, time, and madness
Wisdom and paralysis
God save the queen,
but pawns can only strike diagonally
Comedy and tragedy
Close curtain
Roll credits
Closed casket
Badass, doob.
