Blue
Faces
The
ice cream man feeds the children as the dogs feed themselves
Drains
leak down streets that stretch through austere spaces where blue faces fill the
bay windows of houses
Tomorrow
is today
Yesterday
was the same
The
ice cream man feeds the children as the dogs feed themselves
The
Devil In Me
The
devil perches politely on my left shoulder
But
nobody knows he is there but me
He
whispers to me
Words
of hatred
Words
of pity
Words
of pain
But
nobody can hear him but me
The
devil perches politely on my left shoulder
Digging
his claws into my flesh
Drawing
blood from my brain
And
searing my soul
Oh
devil, sweet devil when will you go?
04:44am
Restless in my bed and restless in my mind
I’ve tried to sleep
For hours now I’ve been laying down with my eyes
closed
This is the closest I get to sleep most of the time
Just a mere rest of the eyes
While my eyes may be at rest
My mind spirals off into the sunset
Those pink London sunsets
