With my teeth gritted against my grandfather's wrist watch
                            I put the dope in my veins
      The ideas it contains
Make me numb for a while
    So numb I don't realize the metal twist and snap between my jaws
Okay, no, I do not do any kind of hard drug, the dope is a metaphor for poetry itself. The watch both time and heritage.
