"Sometimes the shadow of something can be more beautiful than the object casting it."
I got ready to leave
but couldn`t.
there wasn`t any place
I wanted to go.
I considered the
cafe,
but wasn`t in
the sipping mood.
I thought about
the laundromat,
but was far too clean
for that.
I don`t know anyone
that could say it better
than my guitar,
or anything
more intriguing
than the stack of
Beats against the wall
of my room.
it`s hot, and the window
is painted shut,
but the rent is paid,
and somehow
that`s enough.
I got ready to leave,
and then realized
I was already where
I wanted to be.
if there`s something you
can`t get off your
mind, stay up 33 hours
straight, and it will leave
on it`s own accord.
mind you, it will only go
around the corner to the
open air café and sip
exotic blends of coffee
until ennui sets in and
summons it back to your
door.
it is up to you to secure
all entrances.
it`s a sneaky little bitch,
so keep a keen eye on all
silent moments.
repeat process no more
than three times.
if thought persists,
don`t bother seeking
professional help
as you are totally fucked.
I am putting the finishing touches on an original screenplay entitled,
"The Death of An American Housewife."
