Goodbyes

Goodbyes

Prickles the fingers
warms the chest
flushes the neck
fight or flight or fear or freedom
feels
fierce
and frightening?
like you’re a wizard harry?
jolt of lightening

Like maybe I am a fcuking Disney princess,
is this my musical number?
like ahhhhh – no I’m not going to subjugate this room to me singing
But I got a lot of friends who sing opera
and also alt rock
and sweet soul sucking grunge
and heavy trap flows
and everyone’s a DJ
and they got my back

Cuz I think if I get them
towards their goals
I might find my along the way

Or on this journey.

definitely trying on this journey

got a year and a half, or money runs out
tied to my heart
I’m going to spout
words
and rhymes
and pictures if I remember
and video if I figure out how this drone works
and get an SD card
and pack
and clean
a million things
left to do
but as long as my friends pour me drinks
I’ll get on that flight
alive,
if not grateful
if not very hungover
like Oktoberfest 2015
I can’t wait till that line works better
God grant me 30 more good ones,
and I’ll see all these fuckers in 2.
