On the constant puff of the thinking drug,
I drive alone on a drone interstate
It's interesting to watch the intricate in and out
weave of chit chat traffic
The mind finds its way in the pattern, then it skit skats and
shatters
Broken, or unbroken,
It's however you choose to look at it
People have the rage syndrome
They flaunt their fingers at you, as
if fingers mean anything
They say "fucking cunt sucker bitch" over the
blast of their kids headphones
We shake heads and keep going.
See we become too used to things
Too used to the sounds, the lighting
We keep moving unaffected and unreacted
Ticking time bombs, I say.
And I say it carefully.
We hold too tightly to comfort,
and when comfort back hands you, you have
nowhere to go
and nothing more to say
You just drive, and ignore the phone
You become short, apathetically unphased.
And I would venture to say, that if you puff long enough,
monotony becomes history
And history becomes the news of yesterday
Great piece. Rae
