The smoke is thick and is filling my lungs
With an intoxication deeming death
The beer stains on the mahogany
Have been there forever.
I shut my eyes and draw a breath…
Looking around me so much pathetic grief
Men and women with tired eyes
Clutching their cigarettes as though their last
Laughing too loud, falling off their chairs.
I feel so sympathetic yet disgusted
With this life
I can do better
I walk out
A rat crawls in front of me
And looking at me
Shrieks in terror
And dies.
