it doesn’t seem so long ago
that i smoked some cloves
was listening to the Pogues
and drifted into some world war
that i’ve only seen in film
over at Grauman’s Chinese theater
my blues are turning black
and though i opted out of methadone
it never meant that i was strong
will i ever say farewell and laser off the scars
of the circumstances of our battles
at two i’m getting up to pee
the midnight birds are wrapping up
the roosters will shortly crow their song
across the street with the old Japanese couple
i like to think that yesterday’s gash was really a fluke
but the book teaches that we must be quite honest
not being responsible enough to make a decision
i straighten out the linen closet instead
until the sun washes away my pain with her golden arms of fire
words less spoken 
What a great verse, very visual and story like. Loved it!

You are hesitant to do something
cause you don’t know it will do good
all that you do you think is worthless
that it won’t work even as firewood.
If your blues are turning black now
is because of black in the darkness
no wonder you’re waiting for the Sun
you know it will bring light in the day
so you don’t feel fear and hopeless.
I must say, don’t feel like this anymore
because if you feel hesitant and alone
you must know deep in your heart
even in this dark, you have support!
