*water the posion you put in my drink
makes my eyes act like ships
-they're sinking
across the haze, across the room
the din takes on it's new life too soon
and i'm left
-blinking
i don't know quite what it is i see
the alertness evaporates off me
head on table, glass in hand
i'm still
-drinking
thoughts and reality like insences roam
rolling on the walls that line my head and charring the chipt paint
on a ship that's
- sinking
glassy water catchs strob light
cup them quick and hold on tight
i throw my head back,
i'm
-drinking
part my lips
like you would the Red Sea
move in closer
towards all that's dead in me
you can have a sip
-this drink's on me
it's all smoke and water
and th ethought clutches me
whirlling around in chaos free
lushish, alive, intoxicating
we're all ships, sinking
