Twenty-Nine
Who decided pigtails have to come down
At the same time that hemlines start to crawl their way up?
What happened to the phase between playing princess
And getting it inked on your back?
They love to tell you who you are.
She’s already twenty-nine.
Is there only twenty-nine?
When did they take salt and pepper off of the table?
There’s no room for shades of gray;
Keep it chestnut or mahogany.
Keep every laugh inside
To stay away all of the smile-lines
Whom will we look up to if
The only concern is whom we are looking at?
They love to tell you who you are.
She’s still just twenty-nine.
Is there only twenty-nine?
Fourteen or forty-one: look whatever age you want.
I’m thinking of a number between
None and of-my-business.
Only twenty-nine.
Is there only twenty-nine?

Reciprocate
Stop by to visit you at the place you work:
Is that okay?
Close to closing time hoping that you’re free:
Is that okay?
Dropping off a mixtape that I made:
Is that okay?
A few tracks to say what I can’t say:
Is that okay?
If you say to go away, I’ll go away.
If you say that I should stay then I will stay.
See if I spot your car in the parking lot:
Is that okay?
Wait to walk with you:
Is that okay, is that okay?
Read a book I heard you talk about:
Is that okay?
Book mark in the loaner asking you out for a date.
If you say to go away, I’ll go away.
If you say that I should stay then I will stay.
Boombox on the lawn:
Is that okay, is that okay?
Look for a light in your window as I drive by:
Is that okay?
See a shadow and linger a bit too long:
Is that okay?
If you say to go away, I’ll go away.
If you say that I should stay then I will stay.
Walk to your house in the rain to plead my case:
It's not okay.
Picture in my wallet–didn’t get it from you:
It’s not okay
Give a painting to you when you said we’re through:
It’s not okay.
Drop it off when he is there with you:
It’s not okay.
It’s not okay.
