(original sculpture & picture)
Danny had a car,
a car that didn't go far
The car had a gas gauge,
with no gas to age
Danny was sad,
and the car being all he had
With no gas to spare,
or fucks to care
He drove the car,
to the nearest bar
Then to a spot,
where life would be forgot
The car sputtered out of gas,
coming to a stop alas
There sat a ledge,
with Danny on the edge
Bottle in one hand,
and a 45 in another
See the ledge he could understand,
so defined, just like the other
Why is it that's all he could comprehend,
did it matter to him in the end?
Danny looking at the bottle,
hearing the car's imaginary throttle
Says, "I now know what the edge of empty feels like,"
with that, to his head pained a sharp strike
Danny's body fell,
with the empty gun and bottle off the edge as well.
