Doctor shopper
Pill popper
Copper coins can’t change their mind like you
I don’t care whether or not you’re vain
You’re a weathervane
Blameless
Hot and aimless
360°, pennies are one in two
A certainty next to you
Tonight I don’t want a piece of tail
Or even a little head
But a warm body’s always nice in bed
It’s been like ice
But no tranquility’s here
The evil has landed
A sick relationship is what I’ve been handed
And what I’ve demanded
Physician, medicate thyself
Just not from the top shelf
Who am I kidding? I’m an ambulance chaser
Following desperate sirens, flashing lights
In my white Chevy Blazer
Ignoring traffic signals
Healthy singles
Relationship ease
Do I have your disease?
At night I’m on my knees
To God, but when morning comes I bow
To you, it’s over now
You’re not
A poker pot
You’re a player who folded my blankets
When I holded on line 3
Who popped pills in the bathroom while I waited for fun
I heard that rattle, baby
It said we’re done
So maybe I’ve won
At any rate I still have the shirt on my back
And the sun
And I’m out of the fray
So it’s hurt that I lack
I’m a doc on holiday
And a patient
Too, I should have patience
And keep your secrets
But that makes for shitty poems.
