The Commute                                (Updated)

Eyes move side to side as homes speed by,
"Tickets, tickets" last one out gets the fine.
Twenty's, Ten's, Five's pour out of my
wallet. Explosion, losing all it's weight.

A blending blue and orange blurs my worn eyes,
"This ticket has expired", I just can't pencil in the time.
His honey eyes looked down upon my demise.
Does he understand that this is never my ideal paradigm?

Eyeing the hollow bricks engulfing the rusting metal tube,
"Penn Station, final stop", the coffee dripping down my little finger.
Coffee, the rhythmic shaking in my hands, I forgot food.
Screech of the brakes, causing my eyelids to make it darker.

I savor every second of sunshine.
Will my eyes be able to stay open like a hungry cash register until lunchtime?




The Commute                                (Original)

Eyes move side to side as the homes speed by,
"Tickets, tickets" last one out gets fined.
Twenty, Thirty, Forty's  pouring from my
wallet, explosion losing its weight as the lady sighed.

Blue blending with orange blurs my worn eyes,
"This ticket has expired", I just didn't have the time.
His honey glazed eyes looking down upon my demise.
Does he understand that this is why I wish its summertime?

Eyeing the hollow bricks engulfing the rusting metal tube,
"Penn Station, final stop", the coffee dripping down my white cotton.
Coffee, causing rhythmic shaking in my hands, I forgot food.
The screech of the brakes casing my only thought as, caution.

I savor every second of the sunshine.
Will my eyes be able to stay open like the yellow lotus flower until lunchtime?

Like a baby bottle without its nippl
Like Coach K without his breathing tub
Like a smile without a mout
Like Cory without her head in the toile
Like a lollipop without the saliv
Like Alexandra without grey fog in her hea
Like a mattress without its sprin
Like Quinn without a knife at her wris
Like a jack in the box without a clow
Like Donnie without duct taped shoe
Like a home without a roo
Like Patrick without his barren 24 year old wif
Like a side view mirror without glas
Like Kim without stage 3 breast cance
Like a book without pag
Like Annie without her water bottle of Grey Goos
Like a laptop without keyboar
Like Mr.J without demensi
Like a wheelchair without whee
