I usually medicate
put a bandage
on my deepest
wound
wrap it up in
until my bodies
covered
like circling crows
flying above
my vacant
decaying body
Now so hollow
during a endless
desert summer
mirage
my minds
an emergency
firetruck
on red alert now
walking miles
on and on
to catch that always
distant black pond
Typically caffeines
my impulsive
fix of the day
trickle it through
the cracks
of floorboards
im a prisoner
directly under
every drip
that lands on my tongue
resets the
tiny numbers
spin the briefcase
dials
like a
ticking time
bomb
the squad can barely
manage it
they constantly in fear they will
clip the wrong wire
an explosion suddenly
goes off
a 3rd world
country gets
the worst of it
a mushroom
cloud slowly expands
getting fed from
all of my disruptive
thoughts
reaches
little kids playing
hopscotch
a mother
breastfeeding
her newborn
a merchant
selling the last
of fruit its his
best day
Yet im across the world
and I can barely get out
of bed
political sticker still falsely
states we're the greatest
colony
brew up my
second dose
continue to
comatose
maybe the war
will finally end
Off a new album I wrote the past months.
