All the trees with polythene leaves like ghosties trapped in branches. Dancing drunk with headphones on//& you are the taste in my mouth. My only ambition is to one day, some how, if only for a moment, be completely angelic. I dreamt that my eye lids were reflective thoughts on the balcony. I guess it just boils down to one final rule - EVERYBODY HAS GOT TO **** SOMETHING. Walking home with Satchmo. It’s never too late, fall down the stairs. If I had a car I wouldn’t have to pay rent. The lights on the buildings shut off when they see me coming. Walk by the river until there’s blood in my shoes. You dress like a jumble sale & hide your teeth when you smile. Two left feet & two right shoes. Go outside. Drink if you want to - (HM).
