Clack Poems - Poems about Clack

Once upon a distant dream you were fit and lean. Could eat almost anything. Slam drinks until the vampire's sunrise but still make the whistle on time. Now your bloated mirror is the alpha enemy. You need more naps than a colicky baby. Even the flats seem like a steep climb uphill. Your countertop flanked like a mountain of pills. Some...

Click Clack Frick Frack Click Click Clack I know better than to turn or ever look back In a foreign land, I try to relax and watch the sights But if we fly off the rails, God will turn off our lights Click Clack Frick Frack Click Click Clack I fish around in my purse and find my brown sack.

Tiny morning star shining against gray Just above the eastern horizon's dawn A dawn of dull lavender not party gay And constant click-clack of sprinkler on the lawn Cool, dry air penetrates every muscle Chilling thoughts within my brain's deepest ruts No animal stirs with a faint rustle Quiet from the haute zone and lowest hut War rages on in distant foreign lands Young...

Click clack The mind of a braniac Riddled with ritalin Taste that don't waste that Glass of wine Escape time Space out now pace back Pen never sleeps Psychoanalyze insomniacs Click clack The mind of a scaredy cat Feared the present so Regressed to the past Try closing your eyes... Reality ripped eye lids Imagine serenity.... Lonely as an island And now the sea is rising Click clack The mind of a maniac Lithium addiction Constant...
