Two AM

falling
waiting
hold the rush
as long as you can
brown said
grinned
like a football
I thought
pretend it's a game
do your best
the ground looks like a lake
there's a river down there
I've been told
I can almost see some trees
when I do
it will be too late
wait
wait
wait
until
it's almost to late
anticipate
or become a floating
great big
fucking
duck
count
103
4 5 6
rip
hit
like a ton of bricks
if you're lucky
find the river
follow it
to a draw
dig a hole
light a cigarette
take a long drag
wait
wait
pretend
it's a game
of cowboys and Indians
think
think
think

Wasted Words

the words flow like shit
down an already dirty river
I ask for forgiveness
wasting so much time
creating
timeless crap
timeless crap
is crap nonetheless
and it's only timeless
because it has no place to go
so it flows
and you know where it goes
I watch it from my car
listening to the radio
is getting old
and so am I
so are you
everyone gets old if they're lucky
that sucks
so throw a line in the water
or go play golf
or take a nap
or watch a movie
it won't matter
unless you think you have something
to do or say that will make a difference
it probably won't
and you are probably
a dick for thinking it will
