Face Value
I have a headache from last night
and the memories slowly leak
back into consciousness. Exploits
and adventures or the lack thereof
the inebriation of life living in limbo
the pursuit of happiness, or actually
the pursuit of hedonism
I am having fun, I was having fun
I have a headache and work remains
I dont want to do it, no I dont want do
anything at all, God rested on this day
and so should I, he demanded so
but I have a headache maybe I should
go get food, something to relieve the pain
I tried last night it didnt work, it didnt heal
the wound, it only burns on application
and smells antisceptic. As does the room,
no fruits of my labour, my temple
is throbbing as I have a headache
the light is too strong, why morning when
it can be evening. The night is good, it
is an escape from the face I want to ignore.
I cant ignore this headache,
on a Sunday afternoon.
