"Nothing belongs to me,
Nothing belongs to she."
Said the woman writing poetry
Not quite a girl, yet not a lady

Prostitution on the other side of the world
Digest this receding lonesome
Old face, young body, bottoms up
Apartment stairwell leads to the truth

Nothing tends to erase the bruise
Highway motorcycles, poetic music
Sunset strip polka
Playing through my incidental life

"Nothing belongs to me,
Nothing belongs to she."
Said the woman in the tree
"Nothing but her poetry."
