In my mind,
I was a shark in the water,
Deep beneath the listless cold,
Testing vibrations
While waiting for prey.
In reality,
I was all too drunk,
Slurring speech, mind,
And thought patterns
With circuit broken movement.
A funny concept
To never quite grasp
how you are unintentionally
perceived:
The other night,
Drunk again:
“Your friends think you’re a piece of shit”
I always thought I had a way with words.
