On waking
My eyelashes clasp each other
24-hour old mascara;
the remains of an ephemeral mask,
that I’ll resurrect with no fuss
like a L’Oreal Lazarus.
My tongue clacks in a Sahara mouth
searching out more moisture,
Each burst of nausea
comes surfing on a Merlot wave;
my red bottled slaves
Rip open my eyes and rise
to a shoddy reflection, no reception
sour milk, black coffee,
an empty cigarette pack,
I won’t get that night back
Oh, take me away from this piss-marked patch
Take me away, take me away
CHORUS
Take me away
Absolve my sins, make me ok
Take me away
I’ll give it all up, I’ll even pray.
Tried to tell you
but my words slipped on rum
Had this feeling for sometime
Feeling like I’m not feeling right,
like I’ve lost my sight,
Misted by salt,
Been a lengthy fight
Quite an assault
on my plans for life
From the girl with her future on her bedroom wall
To passed out woman, skirt hitched up and all
Dragged back to a past perched overhead
Narcotic overhaul, should have been brown bread
