Flourescent Lights

Hooray. I hate this room and this parade
Your plastic tassels are frayed
Fluorescents lost the novelty

Hooray. I don't hate this room today
Your warm bodies make me safe
Hand-me-down comfort items

I remember when great grandma died
You tried to make me touch her face

This place smells like dinner mints
The lights are way too bright
Coffee breath and baby powder

I've never seen this many insects in one place
With long, long faces
I've never seen this many insects in one place
With long, long faces
Faces, faces, faces
