hang upside down from the neighbor's tree
muster guts enough to swing
ignore the visiting kid who juggles
slam the fridge door, slam the screen door,
eavesdrop at your parents' door
press against the cotton sheets
whisper smuggle/snuggle/struggle
long after midnight, blaze into sleep
oops, now i have Arianna's song about slamming the freezer door
