I don’t take sugar
But we’ll share spoon
So I can steal some of
Your sweetness
I think to consume
Such substance
In front of strangers
Shows weakness
Some see beauty
I see blue
And black
And bleakness
I run full speed
From the neons
And watch as others
Seek this
Plethora of
Glistening glory
Made-for-listening stories
Then repeat this
Chant that life is
Good now!
Great even!
But I can’t beat this
Feeling that I’ve
Been let down
By the seeing eyes
Wandering hands
And feet that move
So neat now
I think
I can’t enjoy
The measurements
Of nectar
Because I’m always preparing
For the beat down.
