I still breathe

By Rebel tiGer King

Completely unaware of the tunes
Guitar strings and bottles
They bind to my fingers
like sinatra on sunday mornings
Of blue and black to the
matter of smiles
Burning halo and cigarette smoke
it fills my lungs with a melodie
of pain
The ink sinks deep into my bones
the truth through the pores slips to the needle
Today i sleep for immortality.
