Split - For Tony Mcphee Poem by Kevin Patrick II

Split - For Tony Mcphee

Its 2: 00 in the morning still up with no warning
thoughts wont stop fresh disasters from forming
The tv is blaring but I'm watching nothing
I'm staring at walls where the paper is cracking



sounds of the trains are driving me off my rails
Cause the dawn is behind, and I still have no bail
I keep looking for peace but its cut into pieces
So I take some pills until my conscience just ceases



Sanities free when your the bourgeoisie
But my mind is divorced from reality
I'm just trying to keep myself from crashing
When the worlds on my back and constantly lashing


There's splinters of me that I'm trying to bind
Don't know if I'm a man that you want to find
