Sobering Thoughts MAG
I sit on a pea-green couch, everyone had one in the '70s
Apart from everyone else
I'm in my own world, different, alone, desperate.
Is there something wrong with me?
Supposed friends ask me general questions,
I don't want to answer them, Should I?
I don't think so.
I switch on the TV. There is nothing
Only snow falls on the dust-covered screen.
Trying to enjoy myself But I am the only one
who is myself
Everyone else is someone new this night, not themselves.
I report to my watch for the twenty-third time,
It reports back still early
People begin their zombie-like walk from the fridge
to the bathroom
Where they begin praying to the so-called porcelain gods.
I'm tired I want to go home, to a bed with cold sheets
the best feeling on earth. Forget about this night
Until the next time I have to responsible
Make good Choices.
