me and my bic pen once again
as i sit and inhale the
smoke my chest grow big
and sinks back in
the mixter of the
carbonation and nicotine
is making my mouth
grow comfortably numb
just trying to cop wit
the cards that ive been delt
looking at the players around me trying
to read their faces
i shouldnt even be concerned
wit this mess
cuz i have a
whole other set of cards
sittin at the next table
and rinning back and forth
between the tables
is wearing me down
yet
i cant seem to choose
let it go;
my mind is tide down
i deeply care about both
guess you could say
i bit off more than
i can chew
or a
challange of double taskig
its got me all
fucked up inside
seems like theres
always some type
of complications
asking myself
do i do it to myself
haha
you tell me cuz seems
like everyone else always
seem to
have the answers
Games of life:
Multi tasking is difficult, I think it's man's way of expecting woman to do more than he. One thing at a time hey! I think that in your poem you have written some of the answers for yourself; you seem to be querying your own challenging behaviour e.g. smoking, playing poker etc.,. Your poetry is good but challenging like yourself, a good read.
