drive one nuts
Ironically...

Dreaming sleeplessly
I'm in a deep sleep regardless
Of what you say thotlessly 
Damage the distress in progress
You sent me letters and emails
Thank you...I'd like to say Thank You
Every time I walk - five thousand fails
Thank you...

Out window with that clock
Each and every frigging day
Tells me to get out of hay

Brushing teeth
Breath smelling so sweet

Things That Offend
Miracle Man
3/5 2025

At eight o’clock sharp our telephone starts ringing,
Medicare telemarketers can drive us nuts.
Seven calls daily keeps both of our hands wringing,

Still wanting to reach out and grab it

Thinking of the cold steel bullet
