You assume I don’t see you Lavish with carbonated conviction Facing the bitter end- that last gulp of cheap beer First a reflective beat, and then a self-assured expulsion The king of this grimy land comfortably sat upon a throne of dizzy ***** I pursue the liquid ring on a worn surface But your dull eyes rest heavy upon my volatile figure Translucent in the dimly lit dive   An entire room intoxicated by clear implications The echo of words inferred; with undertones of stale lager That has seeped into the paint chipped walls where your vibrations are deflected Do you think you’re hiding?   Your glance suggests that these delicate palms haven’t crushed One too many aluminum cans And the cinnamon eyes you so dream of Have not had the pleasure to bear witness To each treacherous move you think you make in secret
