They Want To Eat Me

wake up 
good morning 
some coffee 
look round
eat some toffee 
dress down 
check the heartbeat 
put socks onto the right feet 
keys found 
need find the door 
breathe once 
breathe some more 
sun is there 
there to greet me 
see no dogs
they want to eat me 
this is a day 
so there so right 
a fragmented day 
walks to the night
roaming here or over there 
fragmented brain 
a fragmented stare 
see the red frost on metal 
dew drips from flowers petal 
drive on fault 
red light green 
pass the zoo
tigers beam 
piston friction 
heats a building 
hammers fly 
men do building 
do my duty 
God and man 
think I can 
think I can 
fumble keys 
see the lock
notice my sock 
nobody called damn machine 
i hate you 
i can be so mean 
mend my scars
take a piss 
sleep now bliss 
red lights hanging 
records sneeze
piece of cheese 
hunger for sleep
