The Distant View

Sometimes-
when I see a pretty girl in the grocery store
I decide my shopping cart needs a little more
Cheezits...
Cause she's on aisle 7 which is "Snacks and Crackers."
I wheel my shopping cart over to track her.

This time-
Upon reaching the enticing destination of cheezits
In a moment I realize that I need to beat it
Cause her face looks like she's been in a battle and I surrender.
Somebody please! What is that gender?

The distant view, The persistent view
Can really screw you over.
Did I get her number? No sir!

Cause from this fifty yard fakeout
I think that I'll breakout and run
as fast as I can.
Is that a lady or a man?

Picking Her Nose

Some ladies pick their noses a lot.
I think they think I think it's hot. It's not.

It's kinda gross ya know?
Her holding my hand after picking her nose

I'm like "Get your finger out of there!"
But apparently she doesn't care.
If she did she would grab a tissue or something.
I tell her it's an issue. She screams "It's nothing!"
Tells me that I'm being a prick.
I say "I'm sorry, I just think it's gross when you flick"

She tells me that I'm simply breaking her heart,
I guess I should never even mention her farts.
If I did she'd probably pull off my head off like a booger.

And my friends, that brings the point of this story,
watch your mouth with the ladies, or things will get gory.

Growing Flat

People are disgusting
I should know. I'm one of them.
You're disgusting.

Wishing I was a Q-Tip
Doing the dirty work so people can hear
Our ears are useless
If we don't listen what's the point in an ear?

We're rusting
In our youth growing older
Becoming a waste, destroyed by our environment.

Rusting. Disgusting.
Not changing at all

Without a License

Exhaustion,
stronger when it steals a man's focus
If it didn't exist much less would've broke us
We stood together
We fought the same war
Even today we still have the same core

Doubtless you'd berate me if you knew how I've failed
Condemning criminals from your cell in your jail
You have no experience
Attempt to be insightful
If you beat dead horses life is much more delightful

Angry at you
I'm over feeling frightened
How do you expect to help the army be enlightened
While pissing off the soldiers standing to the side of you
Instead of having your back I watch them hide from you

Blame me for being licensed
When I crash the car
Refuse to get behind the wheel
You couldn't get that far
I'd rather drive away from you while risking the danger
Than rot here with you
To me you're a stranger.

The Experiment

If you could break a man in half
and take part of him away
which half would he have left?
which part of him would stay?

would he be able to laugh?
or would he only cry?
would he even care at all
that half of his body died?

his body might stand tall
while unable to really think
water drips from an eyeball
too bad he's unable to blink

or pretend this man is bright,
but no ability for affection
no friends are found in sight
when you don't know how to make a connection

put his body back intact
complete and incredible with a soul
but everyone was made like that
but if we're evolving, how are we whole?

Signals

A satellite almost collided with a spaceship
While it waited for your signal
Projecting joy for you on a daily basis
But the days became more dismal

An unwelcome tree blocked a road
Unwilling to let you pass
A raindrop falling down alone
Precipitation might bring it back

A dog returns to it’s vomit
Sniffs it before taking flight
A spaceship distracted by a comet
Turns away from the satellite

Moved from the road and back to the earth
The tree that takes root once again
The car still sits there like it doesn’t work
It thought that the tree was a friend
