Trash Can Despair

The trash can sits, the trash can waits

Eager teeth, eager faith, eager hunger

For the things I do not want

Devouring greed, sleeping in its bones

It wants more, more, more

It's hungry, greedy, tired

Thrusting out his picture to the painter

His faith, his eager hunger

Waiting for my trash

I'm here, in my safe depression

Hide away, shy away, despair

So eager

Eager for hunger, for tears dreaming away

Eager trash, my sad place, forever

forever...
