Watching the Road
August 25, 1991
life is black
tar and traction slipping
and I -
on the passenger's side
who drives?
I look up past the wheel
torso swathed in black
pushes on into the night
and blood from dagger of the mind
rolls down the form
before I look away
get back in control I panic at me
but lo...
I crash and fade away
justify your life they cry
I can't - their eyes burn me
you let your choices slip away
relaxed in fear
I sink towards the bottom of my mind
sink quietly from the world
towards void
