Stuck in this whirlwind, lungs collapsed. “Cut the grass, go to college, kid.” Pick up the slack. Simplicity doesn't exist in a world of blue collars, white collars, greasy politics and misfits. Be the one percent who picks up the rotten scent, like a truffle pig striving for a win. I want a girl to pop my thought bubbles with a safety pin. “Pitter, patter”, sounds of summer rain and the innocent. When you have a dream, follow it, because it’s hard to chase after something when you've forgotten it’s existence. I don’t know what to do when I grow up, I refuse to get stuck, but it’s hard to go anywhere in life when you associate all of your accomplishments with luck. People who eat people must be the luckiest people in the world, because they don’t seem to have to worry about taxes, religion, homework, or girls. Worrying makes me puke, and ironically enough, I doubt that worrying makes cannibals hurl.
