Black tar is the seed of life, needles furrow my farm
Just follow the cavities I have plowed down my arm.
I am one of
many, a street gutter has-been
Feeding like an animal out of a
trash-bin.
My body has shrunk down, I look like the walking dead
But I don't need your pity, what I need is your bread.
I must
move quick to find money, quick like a rabbit
Because I've tallied
up a "two-bill" a day habit.
I am a used to be man and my days
are numbered
Every day I move closer to death's cold slumber.
--When the juice is flowing, flying high I will soar
a
feeling so incredible, though soon I'll need more.
--You can find me
in an alley around back of Jane's Diner
I am doomed by my very
existence...
behold the main-liner!
Each day death and I shall walk
hand and hand
Unless you are like me, you can't understand.
Just
look for the zombie around back of Jane's Diner
I am there for
your viewing pleasure...
behold the main-liner!

Amazing, and you really spoke harsh truths in this one. I don't think anyone wants to look like the undead. Thanks for sharing.
