every man for himself--am i a man or a self?
wearing long suspenders and
smoking my tonsils raw
a handful of questionable virtue
and inexpensive self confidence

i am no longer your folk hero,
but rather a jolly youth that hates degenerates
i'll fall out of my chair to keep
my ear to the ground
i must listen for change

yes, and between the mattress, shrieking
and the myterious column of faces
appears the fog in twilight, swallowing
***** tonk doors and vagabonds whole

i am a strange left handed moon man,
i'm high
i have that paralyzing lonesome feeling
i have nothing new to add, that feeling
i am an ambassador without *****,
almost pornographic

I never learn
This happens all the time
Every time there is a final
I blank out
I can't do this anymore
It's like a mysterious force comes over me and takes over my mind
Stops me from studying
I can't do this
I just can't
Why can't I study
Every time I tell my self next time I will study
But when it comes to it
I just can't.
I can't
What is this force that comes over me
Blocks all my thoughts
Stops my mind from working
Takes away all my motivation
Strips me from my emotions
What is this
I need help
And I need it fast
