Awaiting my orders to stand down
I roll myself another roll-your-own
Mullein style ~ Amber whisps
Shared with the wind and soil
My orders never come
So the decision is made for me
Standing orders are ******* by physical limits
I fall asleep on my feet
I stand down
By sleeping while I stand
Tough job
This is zombie work
Why do we let the vampires
Drink our blood
Just like the kids in
Art school said they would
i got soul but I'm not a soldier
