Chasing My Tail

Steal my heart in the summer. Thoughts & visions from Another time cloud my mind. Thinking I was not meant To live this long. Thanking an absentee god that I Did not take that accidental fatal fall. Distractions As lifeblood. Stranded drunk on a humid night. Pushing ply. Burning sky. Making peace with vice, Constantly increasing the pressure in my life. Aim & Ambition. You've come at age. The money must be Made, the bills must be paid. I live hand to mouth & Simplify. The things I can't afford to lose Have multiplied. Friends have scattered. I miss them all so much. I'll see you at weddings & Funerals. We'll catch up & we'll wish each other Well. Only time will tell. I wish you well. Scrape & crawl to gain position Chasing my tail in the land of competition. Scrape, Crawl, Scrape, Crawl, Scrape, Crawl, Scrape, Crawl, Scrape, Crawl, Scrape, Crawl,
