(i wrote this about three years ago. i was going through my first experiences of some odd things at the time. maybe it has some soul, for that reason...but, of course, the dots at the end are a new addition.)
so life’s a carousel and someone’s pulling on the plug. so
have a cold one hit the wall cool your head.
let them roll, bleeding oil, sleeping in the middle again.
no one cares what you’re doing tonight either.
tomorrow you’ll be dead.
no one knows what they’d write on your tombstone,
including you.
"leave your heart at home unless it can sing.
hang your pain at the gate.
your shortcomings
can’t come along.
entertaining demons praised.
dragging demons raised and tossed.
lost souls caressed by fellow lost souls."...
