Three tall women

Trei femei inalte, la unteatru
All women change their skin
and then the monsters from within
bleed outwards
and take over.

A different harpy every year
impersonating every fear
you've ever felt
when moving close beside me.

Oh, are you sure
you want to stay?
I may not be like yesterday
but surely now
I am much better
than tomorrow.

Tomorrow
I may not even know your name
or maybe I'll be wishing
you into oblivion.

Tomorrow
I may be wiser
I will have been around the world
one extra turn
I will have seen
you in and out
and there's no doubt
Tomorrow
I'll be wishing
it were over.
