I have new eyes

But you?

You have no ears to hear me say

"I felt your presence at the corner store."

Today

I bought some ice cream

As a present for myself

To push the ennui out my way

Nothingness is ok

Cuz every eyeball

Can see through drywall

If there's a peephole

So many people

Live out their days

In disguise

And hover several inches off the ground;

Above the awesome sound of

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Blueberry pies

And though you have nowhere to shove them in

I fill the freezer at the bakery

Again

Am I in crisis?

And hiding from myself

A vinegar tonic

And gin

Behind a toothy grin

Cuz with my eyes closed

I still see spirals

And endless halos

All off their payrolls

Spending their days

On demise

And digging tunnels deep into the ground

Below the awesome sound of

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Don't be surprised

If one day

You lose

Something you've found

Within the awesome sound of

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head

Snap snap crackle poppin in the head
