Another from the Ramblings compilation. I have read this out loud at a Poetry Bar down on "Deep Ellum" in Dallas. It was meant to be read aloud.
Takers
In the dank, dark, lousy cells of your mind
Do you find from time-to-time a respite
Do you burn all the day
Do you hate all the night
or
Do you sometimes suffer from fright
Have you cried a tear that was not for show
Had a moment when you stubbed your toe
Was there ever a time when you did not lie
No, that would take effort - you would have to try
Your one of the mean ones
The takers - the spies
Stay away from me
You make me cry
