    Life

    I choked down tap water while they drank gasoline

    Veterans cough up change to feed the machine

    Spinning tires cut the tar a deeper shade of black

    While the eye of the needle watches the straw break the camel’s back

    We danced to the beat of a shotguns blast

    We shook up the odds till the die was cast

    Sing the anthem of plague till the alcoholic swallowed his disease

    Because when life is a hurricane love is a breeze

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
