Talking Shit

 

 

Words dribbling down my chin

Uncontrollably drooling

I’m swooning

Over this new high

Spreading what may be lies

Creating unnecessary drama

Painting motives on people

Lending out my tinted sunglasses for the

World to view

Innocent strangers

In a glance that’s askew

Is she bipolar?

Or did I crucify her

North south east and west

An ice sculpture of distress

Frozen in the minds

Of the world that I chose to confide

These soliloquies of half-truths

Somehow escaping my phone booth

From analog to digital

Broadcasting hypocritical

But too mechanical

To stop

And being a little cynical

I feel it is impossible to

Stop the vicious cycles

Of talking shit

So I won’t quit
