His Grand Plan
why life seems unreal
and makes me feel like there's a drill
burrowing a sweet simple hole into my chest,
slowly like a clock's cogwheel.
So many wants and desires
are tossed into the fire
for the lack of something.
Whether it be time and space
or those presidents that run a green race,
Benny the most.
It seems I'm on the coast,
just testing the waters
but really I'm more than chest deep.
And my knees are feeling weak.
My head's going under
my mind...a blunder.
My lungs fill with fish air
and consciousness will soon disappear.
I'm set in chains.
It's as if life has said to me
"People say you learn from pain....
...allow me to be your teacher."
I feel stuck in the shocking chair a wet towel over my brow,
knowing that now as the hat touches my head, soon I will be dead.
I'm set in straps.
It's as if life has asked me to sleep through my death.
My bolted bed surrounded by doctors,
who look like proctors judging me.
Then a mosquito stings,
and I feel I have to sleep.
And awake no more.....
Lost in my rhymes
slighted by time
I leave you be to decipher me
and the words you've read
and to pray you're not the one who'll be dead...
fare thee well
and have fun in this............
.......The Upper Hell

*ahem* #6 "I'm a little teapot, short and green"
#10 "Glow in the dark Nail polish"
#18 "Candy likes to lick humans" (thought that was the other way around but ok)
Pero mi llama se gusta gordos gatos.
In case you didn't know I chose option number 1, why because intrigues me as well as many other things.
Also for an understanding fish air is the stuff fish live in...just in case your a tad bit slow and didn't get that.....
