Description
i'm half the london fog and only
half of what you want,
i'm half a romantic but i can
never be loved:
filled up to the brim with
sleeping cancers, biding time,
overfull with good intentions
they nap so quietly inside me,
not a sound,
but i can't care enough to keep
ringing ears to the ground.
map out the holes in my lungs and the
subtle aches in my wrists,
bad machinery, i'm half robot
and half canary
i vomit bad poetry, sour and pathetic,
clever quips and broken sentences by the mouthful. it's a sickness i have,
lovesick, brain dead, lonely and
my heart bubbles and sputters
crawling it's way through the dusty
corners of my body
i'm a dig site, a cavern,
a tavern full of
lonely old men.
i dance through mondays
and sleep all of tuesday,
wednesday never comes but
weekends don't count now,
so what's the point?
what to look forward to other than
looking forward to
looking forward to
