Documentaries

Not ordinary, not from around here
She’s something special, she’s far and near
She lives up there
Watches documentaries outside on the screen
Soundtracks flash back to Colfax

He says this town is crazy
Thinks exhaustion is not lazy
Summer is running for days
while Fall stands up over there

She is silent or loud
She is not around
He watches life from afar
Wondering, making up who they are

Not ordinary, not from around here
She’s something special, she’s dazed and clear
She lives up there
Watches documentaries outside, so it seems
Soundtracks flash back to Colfax

He says this week was crazy
Exhaustion is not lazy
She goes out running for days
He falls asleep over there
