“I feel like…”

a fuck
moron
standing
in the parking lot
at 1:12 pm on my lunch
break smoking, remembering
something I wrote and things
thought, finding a strange
mood about it.
my body feels funk
neglected to shave
tips of fishing line
break through flesh on my face
I can’t hide the glazy film
congealed soup skin
over my being but
by accepting it I find courage
to sift through the voices
most of them salesman
except one
who says,
“You got 4 hours left
time only drags forward
get home
and vegetate”
he’s brilliant!
we both agree to rest
up before destroying
ourselves.
 

Walt Whitman
