on a not quite rainy san diego afternoon
the ingestion of drugs
evaporates shades of pretense
and I see a world
populated with pretenders
and I wonder . . .
who writes this script?
every line thick with the profound
as well as the absurd
with splashes of sarcasm
all at once
I seek truths
or as I say signs
that I’m never really alone
swimming in a scavenger infested sea
