Blue Whale

I got sad like suicidal gin
I got confusion like smooth Braille
I got hate like a homocidal vegan
I got direction like a clipper without sails

They got happy like pink champagne
They got clarity like an eagle with glasses
They got love like Jesus at Christmas
They got contentment like a pass mark fail

Give us all drugs that mimic reward
Deliver us from satisfaction and self preservation
Talk to all strangers until they’re familiar

Submerge in black bile and turn blue as the whale

drape

dear tipsy topsy simian
drape yourself in shine
give love until your soul cracks
this is a happy day

dear messy stressy dilettante
do whatever you feel is best
wanderlust is natural selection
you'll end up where you finish

dear overwrought sense of self
ignore all incoming calls
consume all things like a westerner
make room for those with volume

dear niggling sense of need
be quiet and go to sleep
have one more and then call it quits
leave life for for the heaving conscious masses

:)
