suffocated by the heat
sick of eyes
that don't meet

i'm smoked out
drawn out
drawn and quartered
hang by a thread
plans thwarted

brother bill
looks at me
in the gaze of a robin
or an oriole
it's all the same to me

i'm tired
but i won't quit

horny
but i won't spit

and just when i know
i should quit

i find
i don't

give a
fucking shit
