I drank your cup of coffee
You’re gone, and I must stay.
I also ate your breakfast
Your wine I’ve put away.
Your books and clothes
Are in the dumpster.
Your dog has run away.
I’ve thrown out all your memories
You’re gone and I must stay.

Poetry is Good for America

I drank your cup of coffee
You’re gone, and I must stay.
I also ate your breakfast
Your wine I’ve put away.
Your books and clothes
Are in the dumpster.
Your dog has run away.
I’ve thrown out all your memories
You’re gone and I must stay.

I got to wrap it up
And put it way.
Nothing about my private war
Is going to stay.
All of my feelings
All of my style.
All of my friends
Gone with a smile.
Ain’t nothing more to say
Ain’t nothing more to do.
Science and faith have failed me
And so have you.

These are broken words
On a broken page.
By a broken man
With a broken rage.
This is my song
And this is my final season.
My faith has failed me
And so has reason.
A half-life ago
I was radiant with desire.
I believed that numbers
And science held my future.
This is my song
And this is my final season.
Science has failed me
And so has reason.

Attitude is Ace.
Content is King.
Context is Queen.
Grammar is Jack.

Are you a replaceable part of society
Waiting to fall into your grave?
Or are you a philosopher and writer
Excavating Plato and his damned cave?
