Like to pitch glass crack pipes
on a pile of rocks by the long dock
Will sniff then pour out half a fifth
of tequila or vodka The good stuff
down the drain of a kitchen sink
then fill it back with their own urine
They know how to put it back right
in the shadow on the neon counter
Needles can be bent or dipped in
cat droppings Right Folks sneeze all
the time at the wrong time staring
at nine hundred dollars lying on
a blue plastic plate in lines of coke
One specialty is accidents
A crowbar or a long lead pipe
duct taped over thick insulating
styrofoam across the side of your
ribs Like to be never forget
People get killed all the time Right
Now if you listen close you won't
know what you're hearing The sound
of someone’s ankle twisting or the sound
of a nine millimeter going off in fire works
I call out Friends whenever I see them
