.:Co-Fiends Aren't Friends ~ Just Pity Party Partners:.

     
     
Last night, about to head out  
Taking that critical route  
gotta be on that path to avoid The Wrath
See you don't know the half  
Suddenly right then and there
Along came one of my Co-Fiends
On me like bad dreams wanting to talk-that-talk  
Asking me, “How long I planned to be gone?”  
I said, “Hopefully, the whole time.”  
    
Co-Fiend then asked, “Does that mean you’re not coming back?”  
    
I told ‘em, “Don’t know yet  
Probably be gone for as long as it takes  
So for me it’ll be up & onward
I’ve been approaching this thing each day  
Come to realize you guys ain’t the right play  
That this is a whole lot better then
trying to do things y’all way so like really
That's all I have to say. Now you mind if I getaway?”  
 
This Co-Fiend looked at me, then looked away  
Then, asked...  “C’mon-what-is-it-that-you-really-trying-to-say???”  
Prompted...I thought about it
Then I said, “No more lies...no more alibies”  
unlike you I now realize...
That I can only submit to what’s wise  
And as a matter of fact my whole body is now committed  
Truth is I’m totally with-it and I'm now working “The Work” in tandem  
Not doing anything too random while at the same time  
In regards to my highs & lows; hopefully I’ll now take heed  
Whereas my whole body and mind have decidedly agreed  
Flowing along while avoiding what’s wrong  
That's exactly what My Spirit needs  
    
See I’m seeing myself in totality and  
I’m now acting-accordingly  
Because it ain’t nothing like getting oneself orderly  
So now it’s just Mind, Body & Spirit  
So why don’t you favor yourself and hear it  
Because we’re all approaching the-time-to-leave  
and for what’s gone past there’s  
nothing to grieve  
    
Meaning this ain’t the time to self-deceive  
    
Again, this Co-Fiend was looking at me doubtfully  
Remarking casually, saying, “Well, that’s all good, but  
with my influence  
you’ll do even more than  
what you should.”  
    
And right then & there..  
My Warm Front motioned to My Back to “Back out slow.”  
My Front now saying, “This Fiend sounding unlucky so we gotta go  
Seriously, no fronting…but  
you & yours  
still don’t seem to know  
that in all honesty  
y’all need to get with The Flow”  
    
See, was a Definitive Fiend and this is exactly what we mean  
Alotta fronting for certain...
But we’re about to close this curtain  
No longer y’all & us-together...
See, you are Bad Weather  
Sole owner of an unworthy scene...  
So surely we’re parting right out of this dream  
    
Truth is... this set’s really been a sick nightmare  
Like ice without the cream having  
many of us stare...  
    
...nowhere.”
