BRAIN MEDS


everyone loves the sun
until you are in a furnace
want to be in a sauna
until the booze leaks me
ashes scatter and breathable
my neurons on my synapse
refract rays of my lost focus

i am sorry i forget
i wish i was a better being
but who i am and how much
sun i get and where i am from

i smoked a cigarette
i smoked another cigarette
i said if i see you again
i should know how to do this

he put pills in my hand
and i swallowed
with ninety-six fluids
of Old Milwaukee

i don't even know where i am blacking out to
nobody knows what is coming
the dark is just everywhere man
the sun dies too

but it's going to get really big
and things or hell or good morning
a million times a million voices chit chat
step off onto a branch to see the ground
call Zack Birdwell

listen to a man sing
write with chalk
NEIL YOUNG IS STILL ALIVE
and walking is easy
i can still use these goddamn feet
legs

i learned how to move fast today
i forget sometimes
there is this time shit
that i just haven't figured out yet
