T for teardrop's trust

Found myself in the other
a sanctuary for species
Drawing the first language that spoke to me
T for tickle
Trick for treat
T for teardrop's trust

called root
called dew
called river
called rain
called ruin
all called names

Like a paw printed
a name
is disposable
Why not be all exception
An everyday clown
How else do you appear as muddy
Exhausted by its leaky drip

"A" letter of the alphabet is dominating
Spelling letters of me in my notebook
Yesterday a skin that wasn't finished
Tomorrow, I forget–
Gift wrapping
Bad at it, give it to them anyway
Everyone wanting something to believe in

The freedom builds a stage around
Predestinated action

You,
a perpetual motion machine
Baby,
Hello, who claimed yourself today?
