    purposely setting a part of myself on fire
    it's my display and the display is set
    the rust feels smooth against my skin
    and the spoons and forks fall to my face
    and my morning skin and my morning eyes
    reveal the lies that were told to me
    in a yesterday, in a yesteryear
    in the last 10 minutes, in the last 10 letters
    in the sentences and the paragraphs i feel betrayed
    but, the morning air will lift me again
    and i can feel a breath of calm release
    until the heat of the day weighs me down,
    round and round, it's the life of a rat
    in a rut, i am drunk, i am high, i am low
    i am all around, round and round i am stuck
