Open mouths making o's
Waiting to pour in
the next can of Pepsi-Cola
agape at the sight
like fish feeding
the same stare in their eyes
As they see but do not think
Of the world outside the tank.
Open mouths making o's
Counting down the days
until the next
test-tube cheeseburger
accidentally falls in.
Gotta drink this,
gotta eat there,
gotta smoke that.
So many people grabbing
at the chance to feel full
so many empty hearts
stumble upon each other
trying to feel something.
