A Former Lifetime Ago

watching people go by footprints of carelessness on my existence two pancake corndogs, two hot dog specials, and a fruitopia plasma donation money, wet hiking boots, and tired legs from endless walking metabolism and starvation....images of homemade cheese grits and a bacon and cheese omelette with mushrooms at the library constantly looking at cookbook pictures imagining the way i will eat the art on every page swallowing my saliva mixed with phlegm and pretending my gonads are even shaking and yearning for nourishment my legs are damn near jelly and i suddenly break out in a strange type of sweat thoughts all over the place till abstract insanity my eyes are bouncing balls devoid of real world time ....as i watch people go by....living life like regular with no hint of inflated flatulence
