In the bar

Euphoric depression

 

I'm lying naked in the bed and my roommates aren't home to see what they think I do when they are gone

 

Floating in my head

Tip toeing through my typical and boring concerns like most American women

 

But there is a place I can go for just a moment

 

And what happens in my brain gives me the chemical energy to get up and mime my thoughts in public

 

Quiet black and white parade of my scars

Disappears between my second beer and the noise of excitement in the bar
