Annoyances

 annoyances 


the future needed your help

it wasn’t begging 


it didn’t have anything to sell 

just wanted to tell you something 


everything you thought was solid’s 

boiled off into a gas 


everything that was promised 

has been shown not to last 


now there’s just you 

and a little bit of time 


that you were planning 

on spending any way you like 


maybe you’d consider the picture’s 

blurry and not to your liking 


you could move some things around  

get perspective on what you’re seeing 


there was someone there at the door 

now they’re gone 


don’t know what they came here for

it seems like they’ve moved on

Life of the ****

  Life of the ****   I love your body   I made a map that I study   there’s just one thing   that distracts me from loving   ideas haunt me   they take me out for shopping   through imagination   stretching endlessly   tell me what you’re building   behind those eyes   come live with me   in the life of the mind   we go from the streets   to penthouse high   but there’s something   more precious by design   enough parties   enough clothes   can’t spend hours   talking about sports   give me a novel or a film obscure my mind’s got enough   junk to last months
