(transcription follows)

If I even ever had a heart (what’s a heart, anyway?) it is now somewhere across the world(at least a piece of it)Carried by some smiling soulI hope it helps (the soul)I have little use for it (the heart)Usually it’s just a daily confusion about what to do with itSo, since the morning she left (unlike a sad country song)She just made it light and bearable

She left her hairbrushAnd took a heart-pieceI’m wondering if this could be labeled “fair trade”…(I don’t know how they do business in her country--And Lord knows I don’t want to be “culturally insensitive”)But it’s ok'Don’t think twice, it’s alright'

“Poetry” is just some funny way of putting words togetherSo: I’ll speak as plain as I canAnd: It will be like one long comedy routineLikeA.’s got my heartWhat’s got your heart?No, it’s who’s got my heartWho’s got your heart?Ah. . .but what’s a “heart” anyway?(We throw around that term like a baseball)

Let’s move on now'Don’t get me wrong, if I get distracted'Let me speak clearlyClear as an advertisement for an insurance companyIn these uncertain times, who’s got your heart?Or, as strong as a political sloganPIECES OF MY HEART OF THE WORLD UNITE!(ok, maybe that slogan needs some focus group work)

Moving forward…(well, being carried forward)'Aim straight towards those you love'As if moving toward (my old heart)Or maybe just creating (a new heart?)Or maybe, one day they will coincide, collideAnd make a new, improved hybrid heartIn this world full of false hopes(Like a movie announcer: In a world, full of false hopes…)One man, tries to stay out of it allBut wish the world, that I am in, and cannot help but be inWell (I wish it well)Well-Wisher...comingsoon!And I wish well the carrier of my heart (or the piece of my heart)

This is just something for someoneI met not so long agoSomething for someoneI hardly even know(Jeez--it’s sounding like a poem now)This something was bound to be interruptedBut (so far) not by anyone else(Maybe I don’t know this Someone at all)LikeHow we like to think we know what we are voting for(Who we are voting for??)(Who are we voting for?)But we know we are shooting in the darkAnd we know we know we (humans) like shooting in the darkJust something for someone to know:Thanks for interrupting my life by taking some of my heart
