Stupid is as stupid does: 11/29/08
Swallowed by shallow dreams;
Swimming backwards trying to head up stream;
Wondering why my stamina is steadily depleting;
Stuck on the tongue like taste buds with visions of precipice flow;
Searching for freedom,
Reaching for wisdom;
But only grabbing shattered goals;
Fragmented plans and dry, calloused hands;
Constantly cruising blocks and streets,
So much I should've been a pig walking the beat;
However the streets are where my heart resides;
Only sleep when the restless dream;
Mutilated flesh consumed by cannibalistic threats;
All meat but the bone,
Too full to call anything but the streets my home!
