Champagne Limousine

Send an Ambulance to my former employers home address
i was the only supporting wall in a failing building
Printing documents that were designed with fully open eyes
Only to be met with a sea of fully closed eyes

I meet blue-eyed strangers at the scattered terminal gates
suitcases are securely fastened to these traveling wrists
I cannot deny the influence of influence on my life
the determining factor seems to always be an ‘x’

crystal meth eyes introduce me to a cocaine tongue
i run for the hill where all the rabbits sleep
watercress soup lines my lovesick little stomach
todays page will be severly torn out of my journal

that boy will forever try to compose his penultimate score
with his parents ruling over him like ancient pharaohs
knotted hair covered in today trending twitter topics
a back catalogue full of someone elses genius

humbled by a complete lack of sincerity on her lips
my training partner has morphed into a sea of pit bulls
this desperate arrow will not infiltrate any stray apples
they make high-end products to reduce the low-end

convert my currency into bittersweet poetry
I’ll stand at the docks until her ship comes sailing in
My room is surrounded in cigarette smoke from a ghost
bedside lights keep the darkness from creeping in

unsettled start to a new regime of looking after myself
late nights pondering the activities of my frivolous neighbor
i watched them burn their plaid shirts in favor of V-Necks
Back in my day we’d just have altered our wardrobes
