Just Passing Through (a narration of impressionism)
A tired dog trots through
a gas station parking lot
panting for water
but no one can spare
any, or even care
But don't mind me
I'm just passing through
Such a harmless thing to do
And dried blood washes off your hands
but it's okay 'cause you've got
plans
for a better world
plans for your better world
But don't mind me
I'm just passing through
Such a harmless thing to do
Prisms of plastic make--
nothing; rainbows are fake
I'm stuck in my head, my fear
I might just take
the next exit out of here
But don't mind me
I'm just passing through
Such a harmless thing to do
Motivated to be peaceful by
an illegal state of mind
if the world was safe
I'd be doing my time
But don't mind me
I'm just passing through
Such a harmless thing to do
I don't think it's possible for us
to grow into a foresty place
but I've been wrong before.
No one wins in the human race
But don't mind me
I'm just passing through
*Such a harmless thing to do
