 arpeggiated Em
House  in  Virginia
We'd  love to see you,  Emma
 Red velvet  chairs  for you to sit on,  Emma
 Blue cobalt  teacups every shape,  every size
 Your favorite  designs
 White flawed  enamel pots
 And a place  on the shelf for everything you've  got
When  are you  coming to stay?
Say  that you'll  never go away
 Porch swings  and everything
 Your favorite pets,  they're everywhere
 Willow trees  and a cool breeze
 Lemonade, freshly  squeezed
 Sun-thickened  linseed oil
 Is studio equipped for  brooding
 Alcohol  and turpentine  somehow you find it  soothing
When  are you  coming to stay?
Say  that you'll  never go away
When  are you  coming to stay?
Say  that you'll  never go away
She  stands at the full length
 Admiring  herself in her grandmother's  hat
She  says, when she gets her strength
 She's flying  away and she's never  coming back
I'm  done, I'm done, I'm  done
I'm undone.
