E cigarettes and unleaded coffee
Definitely won’t cut it
Given the chemical mix
A body generally craves to wakeSure the morning still comes
Arrives with boring repetition
Following a night disturbed
By pernicious hopes and dreams Plans
Carefully notedTasks that need performing
NoneAmusement
Events to force a smileCurling otherwise straightened lips
Unlikely Hunger
The need for nourishmentTo feed a body and soul
ExtinguishedAnd after all, its really no one’s fault
That your life is futile
And collapsing inwards
Like some sodden cardboard box
In a pee stained doorway
Long overdue for demolitionBeware of raggedy men
That seem fun and interesting
But will prove eternally ravenous
Stealing space and time from your lifeThey fill every moment with adventure
Running, endlessly always running
Towards a place that waits patiently
For you to say goodbye.
