Analysis of MY INFERNO - 2
Derrick E Carey 1981 (Sarasota)
I just finished
My first blunt
As the sun
Has risen to it's
Peak
I'm thinking
It’s time to head
Back
I jump in the truck
And smile
I have another one
To smoke
Or spark up
Before I get back
Home
I switch my tunes
Over to
Bob Marley and Lauren Hill
Turn your lights down low
And pull out of the parking lot
I'm seeing a lot
Of traffic on the road
People are finally
Waking up
The joggers
Are getting their miles in
I'm getting blazed
And
It's getting hot
I get to my turn off
To head home
Off of the island
And
I’m thinking
I still have
A half of blunt
Left to smoke
I pause for moment
Damn
Let’s push it
So I turn the truck
And continue to head
To North Siesta Key
