Sober At the Speakeasy Pt 2
“Would you like another drink sir?”
“Sir?”
Vision blurred vision blurred
Tonight more than my drinks have been stirred
Blurred vision blurred vision
As the bottle empties the poison’s made its incision…
But awe man it’s not over
Willing of course on the assumption that the Lord says the same
forever for some years I want my days to roll over
(but if he decides to cut them short (then my fair end has came) and the reflection in the mirror is the source of my blame)
and matriculate like back in the gap when I thought that I’d never get older
back in the gap when there wasn’t a weight stacked on my shoulder
I don’t mind it though.
I think of it as a necessity to keep the upper hand on every foe
“Yes please…”
Drinking out the bottle deep sea diving for answers
Sweating all the small **** like I’m searching for cancer
Fingers pitter patter on the table like an erratic dancer
Vision starts to obscure as I realize I haven’t the cure
For humanities imperfections that is based on pure perception
But times ticking
Tick tick tick…
My watches reflection spots a figure and sends
my eyes in the corresponding direction.
This beautiful figure is hard not to stare at
and it’s getting harder and harder (multiple forms of ********)
first is mind then its body as they both align
this being gliding across the room is so divine
stricken, yes I’m a being who’s beating
his heart for you don’t you see I adore you
her vivaciousness is filling me with thoughts lascivious
but it feels like it’s some sort of bliss
her curves have placed my nerves into spastic fits
the **** is this?
Love?
No I realize I can’t see her with my real eyes
But Lord she is as perfect as the heaven above blue skies
Curves extending for days, her body calls to mine
I feel a tingle in my spine, and oh how she makes my heart sway…
I’m sweating, man this girl is gorgeous, but I must pick her mind
She sits down at my table so I feel obliged to say
“Hello.”
