Dwindle
At the bottom of a bottle
Severing statements
The lost, haven't been here
They've a call they'd share
But its a monetary one
Just moaning selfish ash-men-
They're worshiping pot leafs and needles
I ignore belittling of what was strength
I've a call too, I'd use it but no one answers
No one's gonna cry this morn
At rock-bottoms playground
I'm passing along
Grey sounds of blue days
They're knocking
Full up and lost
Like my laugh-stains
Nay to ambitions, sit still
Nay to stillness, I wont stay
You'd say: "I thought you'd be here by now"
But I underwhelm as a hobby on weekdays
I could be seventy, picking my grey beard
For all my desert hours, dry; like irritated skin
Raindrops rusting stagnant tin
I can see it get duller, change little
I as a hovering fly, and a car comes-
Unsuspected, I am a stain on your window
I see eight nameless faces rambling
The bottom left one wont speak
He's my shade of yellow
But wearing black face and crying
Some soldier I'd make, cowering
Some human I've made, devouring-
Much more than my share was given
Now he's starving and I'm complaining
You said don't jump
You'll be lonely in hell
I didn't jump, I fell
I'm still here and ugly
Bouncing these static beams
Walking as cold as can be
My shotgun tames me
Death's got that glared eye
Like silver diamonds on a slope
Begging a dreamers soul faking-
A better life as its grown colder
Oh, I've tried
I want to die
I want to live
I want you to hear
I want anything I can
I'm so alone
I'm growing cold as snow
I may not be here tomorrow
But that's okay
I told you, you tell me
I now blissfully I go
A marksman of loathing
So long petrified night!
