Depression is a car crash
Speeding down the road
Ignoring all the warning signs
I brake hard
The skid begins
I hit the pole
It's not a car that's crumpled
It's me
Seriously injured
Close to death
I survive but only just
Head doctors do their best
They hide the truth
Pretend they can return me
To my former self
Even they know
The skid marks are on my inside
Fade they will over time
But erased.....never
I'll never be that person again
It was time for a change anyway.

They hide the truth
Pretend they can return me
To my former self

Fade they will over time
But erased.....never
I'll never be that person again

Filling Station ( After Elizabeth Bishop )
Oil-ladened landscape
atop a filthy plot of concrete -
its native inhabitants
connoisseurs of grease;
their laborious toil rotates
lubricating worldly wheels
of cadillac sevilles and corvettes
You sought, found life beyond globular
molds of oil saturating cracks
across a dirty reality check;
Texas crude bubbling up, black gold --
except for the blue collar coveralls
stained with its blood
...

Penchant To Drive
You stole my attention
that inopportune moment
hands on the wheel
and that throb in my pants
a ravenous gentleman
finding inherent beauty
around corners
undiscovered.
that inopportune moment
hands on the wheel
and that throb in my pants
a ravenous gentleman

The Reason Why He Touched The Dial
Marty became so sick and
tired of listening to those old
songs on his dad's radio.
