Kind Of Like Spitting


first impressions of the next day: 
a hornet repeating its sting. 
worn out, woke up. pull out, 
pull up you think... is it 
always gonna end this way? scratching names off the 
phone list. is it what you 
take or what we give away? 
that makes your heart feel 
less homeless? you've only 
pushed the splinter deeper 
in. another hook in your lip, 
losing whatever war you've 
been trying to win. a million notebooks just like yours, 
full of weed and whine. 
you're a character in 
everybody else's short film. 
You didn't have to be one in 
your own life. You've only 
pushed the splinter deeper 
in, losing whatever war you've been trying to win. 
rapid fire. gun for hire. 
i hope he blows your smile away.
