i’ve got to pull a lazarus and i can’t even shine my shoes
a day of glaucoma testing now pretty testy saw more
blindfolks than i can ever remember seeing and
seeing is not overrated talking is talk a thing to
death and it will die
like 11:11
talked it up recently all spiritual newagey and now i
see only 11:08 and u know u cannot wait for the universe
to give u 1’s it will only give u chilblains where u sit w-a-i-t-i-n-g
and waiting is for godot worshippers and i am all heathen
• a follower of a polytheistic religion; a pagan i need to pull
a lady lazarus but first
come poet
shut up
__
my typewriter is
tombstone
still.
and i am
reduced to bird
watching.
just thought i’d
let you
know,
fucker.
