~•§•~ Learned on the Spot ~•§•~

by @bettsjc187

I got a pot to piss in but this piss in this pot, It's all I got When confronted with that Eminem talk, that proverbial one shot I gotta stop saying, "sure, why not?" First of all, what a crock Secondly, IT'S FUUCKING NOT! Forgot a lot but never lost the plot Though I find myself oblivious to subplots a lot Flames are hot, can't say the left sink handles not But the one with a label is not the one too hot too handle, Lessons learned on the spot Connecting lines, lost a dot ...gotta be a 'bot... Fasten a sloppy slipknot, keep it taunt Toss it up over the branch to swing from, now I have a forest to haunt Awake or asleep, absorbing the same onslaught What's fake, what's not? Sunken eye socket, looking gaunt Believe it or not, it's only ever been just an ink blot Write my theory in ransom font Look for the proof, there's a lot Go one step further than you were taught Always remember it could all be for not That's why you'll find me on a canvas cot of rot to rot in the back corner of Salem's lot A set with a pre dug spot for a later point in the plot That is if I can survive the death scene in the pilot AKA a nobody that not just somebody but everybody forgot Only thing that sticks around are the demons I fought Tell me, whatcha got? ©2024
