[Joining the Fad] Poem [Cause I'm cool]

[InaRut]

Doubts

So here is a little poem for you lovely and admirable people of EC. The first lyric was my first thought when I woke up this morning...So I kept in my head and went straight for the computer. The rest of the poem seem to flow---till the end. I think I need to work on it still but it'll probobly be more interesting if I post it now when it first appeared in my head.

I saw you at a booth
You neck in a noose
Your hand hugging a beer
Your face sick and queer

And I ask you to reach out to me
My friend -- to be
I ask what is you’ve done
To put out the burning sun.

I saw you in the rain,
Your heart in pain,
Your hand hugging a note
They think, “You won’t.”

And I ask you to look to me,
And tell me, how can this be?
Standing on a bridge looking tall.
To everyone else, you are so small.

I saw you at night
Your face gave me a fright
Your hands hugging a hat

Being eaten by a street rat.


And I ask you to say,
How did you get to be this way,
Crack in your pocket
And x-wife in your locket.

I saw you in your home,
Writing this poem
Your hands hugging a drink
Your brain, to think.

And I ask you to today
Will you escape the fray?
Doubts and worries pass my mind
But those are thoughts I can put behind
