The Lion's Share

the lion's share, discarded
what the midnight crew would not do
sickening to the stomach
I lie and drool without use

drugs! Disproportionate partying
serotonin-drained you
I wish that I could recognise this face
as human

but I choke, hold
common sense when desperate to a devil's end
no more to life than going down in style
our minds like shattering
shouldn't come as much of a surprise

memetic, disconnected, wired and wireless
sycophantic, tireless
shimmer, shine on a flat screen
a flat dream

I sold my liver
I saw a spark
kept from descending in fear
my intimates like the black taint

letting go of my soiled past
grants me the shell
keeps me collected and clear
vile markets may collapse
but we live in lightyears

it's not your fault
that there's suffering
and I don't believe
that anything out there cares for us
give me a call
when they let you down
