Get ready to run

I want to wrap great arms around you to keep you safe
a big whole reg heart that burns
and then show you where to go, how to love
the way whole people do.
But all I can give you are the tools
to stand up and walk with your head high.

Step One.
Save some money. Look for a place.

Step two.
Run away to Vermont with your children.

Step three.
Find a job.

Step four.
Live happy.

I promise I'll get you out.
