Survival of the Fittest
Satin Fingernail Polish

Julia O’Donovan

Look into a bright light
See if you sneeze
Don’t take it all so seriously
“Lighten up” that’s what Dana said to me
So Many years ago

And the past is not a blur
Sometimes things can be so vivid
I just delivered a nickel bag
Never saw myself this way
I was always losing control

Satin fingernail polish
She wore satin fingernail polished
It matched her coat
And sometimes I wondered
How many colors she had

The man still has his music
He will always have his music
He sounds better now
Then he did a few years ago
When his hair was long

��
Blair, I have lost you
You’re lost
In a sea of stars

You used to confide in me
Now you don’t
Believe in me

They say you cried
When I had my fall
Long before yours

You gave up on me
Left me behind
But I’m not like the rest

If I could find you
You would hear me
You would talk to me

Now I have lost you
In that sea of stars
But I see you
