—AND I HAVE THIS DREAM WHERE I’M SCREAMING UNDERWATER

 

 

      the disappointment raft

 

 

packed up my disappointments

  put them on a raft

watched them float stocky

  through all the smoke and ash

but it’s like trying to

  rewrite a false memory

cause don’t you know

  they sailed right back to me

the waves on fire

  water hissing like electric spit

I shot my best arrow at it

  but didn’t hit shit

it’s been a hard time

  trying to conger yum

nothing’s appealing nothing’s fun

  it might be what I’m drinking

or the early hour

  that last scratch’s got me

playing Phoebe feeling pretty dour

  Kyoto or Funeral

I’m going to steal the lyrics

  rewrite my obituary

top it off with hysterics

  time to sit my sad ass

on the disappointment raft

  paddle through the brown haze

breath deep and not look back
