Night Life

What you are. What you want. Oh my god. What you want. Today I woke up dumb. I couldn’t think of any words or work my tongue. I couldn’t even praise the sun cuz the concept of walking outside was something I couldn’t process. I thought cartoons would look like fun but my eyes had no idea what they were watching. Maybe I’m not meant to have one of those what’s it called... something... hold up... I’m rubbing my tummy and slapping my face basically I’m multitasking frantically prancing in space. Pray for me. And while that won’t fill up my gas tank I can make believe death will grant me a million miles to the gallon. But I won’t hold my breath unless that’s how I’m supposed to get there. Whoa... lord knows it’s all too often thinking outside of that box will get you inside of a coffin and talking about what you want is better than accomplishing shit. What you are. an affront to me! What you want. Today I got up in my own way I couldn’t find my happy place because the crap was opaque. It’s in my face and I’m wading in it. Am I the wader? I’m afraid I’m made of it cuz I crave the taste of it. In fact I just made myself a fat crap sandwich with sauerkraut and raisin bread right now and I didn’t even have to pay for it. Like I said there’s no escaping it. Look, people give a lot of advice but then I watch them hit their heads on what’s in front of their eyes. Just because I fuck shit up don’t mean I’m one of those guys that’s gonna make it someone else’s problem, not on your life. But I’m allowed to yell loudly at myself when I stub my toe and ridicule myself when I got no get up and go. Now I’d like to put up a toast! Whether I’m celebrating or medicating you’ll never know. What you are. an affront to me! What you want. an apology? Oh my god. you’re too close to me! What you want? Today is gonna be more of the same baby. It’s amazing how we gain momentum and remain lazy. Today is gonna be more of the same baby. It’s amazing how we gain perspective and remain crazy. What you are. an affront to me! What you want. an apology? No. Oh my god. you’re too close to me! What you want?
