It has to be the heat around here
I've got this pen making a disillusional mess
Ride with me,
the way two friends would hop in a car and
find new lands
But it's too hot to go stirring up something like that
I may not continue in this fashion.
I may gut myself for three days straight.
The heart is an ember.
You know the rest.
It's complicated, it reeks of unknown stench
But undecisiveness compells the devil to make
ouiji boards talk to you
And before you know it, your cigarette has burned itself out
and your glass is now empty and starving
Empty and starving.
If the idea had been fed, I wouldnt have to water my
flesh like a plant
I can barely climb the stairs.
So dont expect me to rip a fortress
There's only one way to turn this into something,
matches and gasoline.
"I've got this pen making a disillusional mess"
This is a great introduction to this piece because you followed through with cleanliness. Your descriptions are well refined and perfectly rounded at the edges.
Your use of irony is mighty, mighty fine.
Even my eyes are on fire.
