DEAD MAN

 

let's have a bit more
let's make believe
let's eat something larger
than our heads

i wanted to know things
beyond the knowing wanted
to experience
something big and

beautiful but was bombarded
by this sense of guilt and the stench
of stewed tomatoes
i am eying

an escape route toying
with the idea of flight but
know i cannot fly know
i am a dead man
