met a few crazies tonight
felt lonelier and lonelier
as time crawled on
the void your absence has left
spills like some milkshake ache
into my heart
there are potholes
where love's smooth
pavement before only ran
in short
I feel worse than
a stretch of
'Mississippi Highway'
and I hear those are pretty bad
but with this emotion/economy
the way it is at present
even that can't be helped
and so I slept.......................
