Clouds of smoke Swirl around my head Like the thoughts inside: A foggy sludge Making mocking faces Mimicking my ghosts 'You are a lush' 'You are a rogue' 'You are a pain in the ass' Ashes falling to the floor Pulling me along Cherry red fire sizzling Burning away my resolve I get up And I fall farther Face it, said the smoke You're no phoenix My eyes close I agree.

Fighting Fog
Clouds of smoke Swirl around my head Like the thoughts inside: A foggy sludge Making mocking faces Mimicking my ghosts 'You are a lush' 'You are a rogue' 'You are a pain in the ass' Ashes falling to the floor Pulling me along Cherry red fire sizzling Burning away my resolve I get up And I fall farther Face it, said the smoke You're no phoenix My eyes close I agree.
