Chasing My Tail - Modern Life Is War

Steal my heart in the summer

Thoughts and visions from another time cloud my mind

Thinking I was not meant to live this long

Thanking an absentee god that I

Did not take that accidental fatal fall

Distractions as lifeblood.

Stranded druk on a humid night

Pushing ply

Burning sky.

Making peace with vice

Constantly increasing the pressure in my life

Aim and Ambition.

You’ve come at age

The money must be made, the bills must be paid

I live hand to mouth and simplify

The things I can’t afford to lose

Have multiplied.

Friends have scattered

I miss them all so much.

I’ll see you at weddings

And funerals.

We’ll catch up and we’ll wish each other well

Only time will tell.

I wish you well

Scrape and crawl to gain position

Chasing my tail in the land of competition

Scrape

Crawl
