Déjà vu’s dusk and certain glooms persist, When I’m drunk, A foul whiskey And come closing, with a hand outstretched, Scouting for safe or surface , Any guide or lane away from yearning. But I do and I want; I thirst for a tap atop pale palm And not come my own claw; But rather the benign I once remembered, Now “retrievable,” in only dream, Confined to only dream It’s when I stub my most remote of toes, That I realize – Blood stains white carpets, I’ve had too much to drink And have once again forgotten My way to rejection, ejection and the bathroom. In desolation conglomerate lethargy I make my way towards slumber, Coma’d on my crimson carpet, Curled into a little ball, afraid like abandoned cats And lesser the enthusiastic for morning, Quite the opposite a child and more so the escapist.

Night Light
Déjà vu’s dusk and certain glooms persist, When I’m drunk, A foul whiskey And come closing, with a hand outstretched, Scouting for safe or surface , Any guide or lane away from yearning. But I do and I want; I thirst for a tap atop pale palm And not come my own claw; But rather the benign I once remembered, Now “retrievable,” in only dream, Confined to only dream It’s when I stub my most remote of toes, That I realize – Blood stains white carpets, I’ve had too much to drink And have once again forgotten My way to rejection, ejection and the bathroom. In desolation conglomerate lethargy I make my way towards slumber, Coma’d on my crimson carpet, Curled into a little ball, afraid like abandoned cats And lesser the enthusiastic for morning, Quite the opposite a child and more so the escapist.
