"No one said this would be dangerous..."
Bat at the ready, those targets don't give up
and move laterally.
Nowhere but the nameless roads or
the sea to state it plainly.
Pretend it won't affect you,
unalived by this one or the next group.
"What should I do?"
Relax, you don't have to step foot on the
moon, but the distance will make you
envious.
It's not 'all' of you to cover, it's
the notable bits, you loon. Isolative penance
for this panicked Square Anus.
Dark hoodie, plain cheap frames,
Cash only and answer to your new name
until the cows come home, eat the steak
without the shame.
No notes, no last rites, a natural disaster
is a bonus. Don't go nuts, death just makes it
faster.
Before you consider the leave, remember
debtors are the nastier.
Canned tuna meals without
an opener, prepare for the stoner's couch
or bum fire. Slow the roll,
ignore the clout.
Clean-shaven? Try the switch-a-roo, opposite, wear
a beard; neither, just get weird. Must
change styles in a mirror.
Don't get caught with the bugout bag, only
the 'well-worn' contents inside. Move about,
head down, they expect you to hide.
Plagiarizing IDs for the forms
with those high interest rates.
Your mother was never born,
"Hell nah, I've never been to those Parkway dorms.
Fingerprints are a myth: every shirt
tailored a little past the wrist. Front yard
always has the thickest mist. Family huddled
in horror, perpetually waiting for the twist.
Defy the laws like they don't exist, speed run
through TSA, as you deploy the officers-- "hey, hey,
look, there's the terrorists!" Cars forever parked for
intense dogging days, a mile from your quaint cabin
and your hermit ways.
Let them wonder what happened amidst freedom's scorn.
All the time in the world with your life to mourn.
About the Creator
Willem Indigo
I spend substantial efforts diving into the unexplainable, the strange, and the bewilderingly blasphamous from a wry me, but it's a cold chaotic universe behind these eyes and at times, far beyond. I am Willem Indigo: where you wanna go?
