as i tumble and scrape through the life provided
i flash back and forward through memories and dreams with vivid hallucinations and lost opportunities.
Forgotten beautiful faces replaced with shitty daytime television sound bites. Fed on a calorie-high diet of war, sex, money, wrongful patriotism we are all lost infants waiting for kind assistance,
for the mask to fall from the reality we are presented with. We link together our lives for brief moments it passes and new links form.

Tell me if the splatters make

Although,
for a split second

Whiskeys poured with icey showers,
the vice machine, chugs on for hours.
Sealed in brew and wide glass froth,
sticking to a surface
bar flies feast off.

Wine lunch girls flirtate aggression
to the new bar boy,
to teach him a lesson.

The redundant and the retirees
sit on the terrace, having a wheeze.
An awkward couple
out on a date
he  regrets,
she wished she was late.

All aboard the vice machine!
All aboard the vice machine!

Drink and drink
not to stop,
Until you have no more
cash to drop....
