Yours and Some of Mine Lyrics by Mark Yakich

Unrelated Individuals Forming a Group Waiting to Cross

2004

To be wanted before you’re wanted, painting
flesh in a badly lit room. To run away,
figure slapped over ground,
quickly and clumsily, then perfectly
smoothed in, as if by small rhapsodic blows
to the sternum. To take those short
precluded trips to the minimal
hotel in town, to the lobby, to that chair
from which I, Infinite Reader, watch
a man’s hand slightly touch the blue-
belted hip of his lover. I heard you
clear your throat periodically. The hours
I was obliged to watch, with lips pulled away,
a supernumerary copy of your figure
reappearing as ground, vanishing
into what was never really there.
