daft

slumped over puffy-eyed  
haven't cried for hours
wishing that burnt hair  
smell would go away
 
don't forget the wings have teeth
crickets don't chirp
when they rub their feet
 
hammer down the sickle  
I busted a hump doing that
or so I was told
 
but if I could see  
through my eyelids  
it wouldn't help
me give a shit
 
you can't lead water
to a camel
