Sorry about that slap in the face
Scratches and bruises on drunken soaked limbs
Can't remember when
But I dance with a bare foot best friend
Bartender clad in tattoos
He's got a thing for my
Overalls and long blonde hair.

Takes such effort to move and live
Whiskey, shots bigger than my palm
Eyes so heavy, how am I sitting in this cafe

I should write, contemplate
Seems like just yesterday
Everything was so shakeable

Who will I be, come next Memorial Day?

Men on the corner,
This mini frappuccino ain't worth
A 5 dollar bill of mine

Apartment crowded with leaving
End of this coming week
Long Eyelashes, we gonna make hot dogs tonight
I imagine in my head
Wanna get kissed
Or wanna get hit

Gotta purchase batteries
Clean up all his discarded cigarettes
From a time I should have loved me more

I'm not full of articulate metaphors today
Stayed in bed until 3pm
"You look strangely radiant"
I play with fires and guns
In my mouth.

Give me that tattoo
Wanna ink and look like a hymn
I wonder if The Betrayer
****
Moons upon moons upon moons

My whole life is about to change.
