Little Black Boxes I

Drunk and insane 
feeling my pain 
sharp sweet 
I sleep and try 
to keep my thoughts 
in nice neat places
proper and complete 
propped up in little black boxes 
know them like the drugs 
they are; toxic 
I feel all my life’s pain 
sharp sweet erotic 
I bleed to myself
I hate my sight 
I feel tight 
I need a drink
drunk and insane; 
something neurotic 
never feeling the delicate rain
