my can’t get to sleep without my nightcap
straight from the bottle
several nightcaps just to make sure
tap tap tap
sounds good tonight...hemingway-esque
tomorrow when I’m sober and when my head’s clear
it meets the arch enemy delete button
in the old days it was wadded up paper
waste paper basket on dirty floor like mt. fuji
covered in clouds
or giant marshmallows waiting to get put in a fire
bills not paid (that I never got) (wink)
7 a.m. comes early alarm ring ring
good thing to get up at the crack of noon
after staying up all night with my friend the moon
it’s a better more relaxing world with no one around
nobody around to make a sound
time strung out like a heroin addict
it’s mausoleum silent now
now I can rest in peace
