THE BRAINLESS CORPSE IN VELVET
I GOT SOMEONE TO BE TOMORROW
Hey, can we hurry this up?
I got someone to be tomorrow.
I need to be a nothing sandwich
With lackadamia nut butter
And no-job jelly
With a side of disappointment decaf.
They call me Nobody,
And I'm on the other side of this window.
Together we can accomplish anything
, , everything
, , nothing.
Cause tomorrow I want to be anyone
, , everyone
, , no one.
But if I was always any every no one,
Concealing that still cup of coffee in my mind
Solid black water until the other ghosts talk,
Was I really even alive?
