Dinner Party and Guess Whose Invited
A cannon waiting to explode hold my heart within chambered walls
I stood right beside the feast but couldnt bear to sit
I wined and I dined but I stand
Holding my mischief in my right hand puffing and dragging in the other one
I smell its swirl robust and ripe ready off the vine
He is the reason why people like me drink
Sober is for the agoraphobics but in my adventures I do gather ouside
In the garden by the psychadelic frog ribbitting the tunes of Marley
Dressed like Jimmy, sat down on the lily-pad guitar
Strummed slowly and for in my hurt one moment I began to sing and laugh
Dry and chuckled I'm always the last one to choke
Hang on a word too many while I drink the swirl sip my curiosity
Unleash uncage inhabit my new prey while I fake pretend pray no incarceration
