roll it up and toss it out back at dawn
on both sides of 5 for too long
ten cups of coffee til i'm sober i thought id understand when i was older
but i'm still placating faces and conceding traces
it's like trying to explain the difference between what you see and what's sane
forfeiting collateral as means to a mental fast to forget it all
i want someone to explain the reasons we subject ourselves then refrain
refrain from a dialogue
afraid to learn what we're even measuring at all
so i tested my resolve against off-season aperol
a summer precipice before the fall
streamed successes and pedestals
i found it ever so methodical
what you're framing as canonical
a side-by-side headspace
a separate set of law
through a lens all my own
a clean slate after all
indoctrinate me
pull over the wool
swaddle a fragile ego
incriminate me
pull back the curtain
on what i found in the ignorance
holding candles to ignorance
rattle the compass
to mimic our trajectory
spiral accomplice
always held the door for me
oh, still throwing out at dawn
on both sides of 5 for how long?
10,000 cups and i’m older
it all just feels colder cause i’m
perpetually postering
what we found along the way
