One Foot Out the Door
I miss watching the sunrise
From the riverbed
And drinking King Cobra
And dropping acid
And shooting heroin
Talking to myself
Being happy
Completely unashamed
Of being a fuck-up
Calling you
And doing more
Creating bad karma
And malicious stupid you
The two of us high
And far away listening
To “Ride the Lightening”
Then you seized
Upon approach
To middle age
And drank yourself to death
Leaving me here alone
With questionable habits
On this rotten planet
