If you hold onto this
Drown in the water
Look up! Look up!
There’s hope that if you hold onto the flower
The wind that carries its weight
And floats up
Swirls around a bit
I can’t get that green cicada noise out of my head
And I plan to end another father figure’s life
“I’m beyond frustrated.”
You don’t lead me anywhere,
I just travel in circles, and all you do is make noises
Plates clutter, your middle-age flatulence
Feet thudding with panic
And I fear that
I might end up like you
Bald, bloated, stubborn and alone
But for now
I feel the wind in my hair
There are no signs of appendicitis
I feel like I’m guiding myself
Even this cigarette has given me a new meaning of life
And if I can just walk around
I’ll eventually stumble on that mystical guide
Here’s hoping it was me all along.
