Return

Karla Clark


Back home is wider than my legs lost the beat when viper sting 
hid your keys ‘tween his fingers and though he snorin’ I ain’t 
lightfeet ‘nough to get ‘em you gon’ have to chain lang along

They say if I don't look back I can save you from anaphora 
screams and busted feet that if we hold on and survive browser
history and search inquiries that I can give you yo’ name

Back home is a click away but your chain chain clang fades
afraid he woke up and took you away I steal a peek at 
your face becomes the ink I can't lift from this page
