Figment of your imagination
Mirage of your desires
As elusive,
as the blue ruby

Consequences of nothing
All actions have consequences
A law of nature
Opposite forces
As for indifference, sloth, nothing;
consequences are as forceful,
maybe more so
Eyes
The eyes of a criminal
Before, or after?
You must not be surprised… (for hours and hours)
… that I am paranoid, considering;
I leave an empty road for my garage only to find the same road crowded when I re-enter with my car and get stuck in traffic for hours and hours,
the underground (or subway if you prefer) works flawlessly week after week until I dare a ride, and get stuck for hours and hours,
of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine – that is, into the same gin join I’d walked into a half hour earlier – and throws up on my shoes, leaving me at the cleaners on a Friday night for hours and hours.
Someone’s out to get me, hear me, someone’s out to get me.
Twinkle, twinkle
Stars go out
one by one
Stars that used to shine so brightly.
