Destructive Friends
Up all night
into the dawn
pipe in hand
till it's gone,
with a friend
who does the
same, we always
like to play this
game.
Now it gets weird,
it gets strange,
feeling numb,
feeling deranged.
Lurking and,
creeping with
the shades
pulled drawn
day is here
though we're
all gone.
And good friend
Jones won't
go away sits
in pipe till
next day.
When we
scrape to
find it there,
just an illusion
do not care,
need to stop
and, show our
ware.
We're not misfits
come look and, see
Were just avoiding
reality.
