life is funny, if you think hard enough - it's hilarious,
right when i think it's on track, it splinters so various,
love is there, then circumstance, and boom, poof,

desperately weighing outcomes, myself my choices will sicken,
hallucinating, seeing bricks in place of smoldering cardboard,

then shattered, before the gun was even unholstered,
that's it in a nutshell, thousands of little nut shell pieces,
slicing into my feet skin creases, as i stomp on the embers,
