Analysis of IN PAIN BUT I WON'T CRY LIKE A BITCH
mad hippie poet 1974 (new jersey)
Hell these last two weeks have been hell
The cold used to be like an old friend warming my bones and tickling my nose with its different patterns of snowflakes
I use to enjoy the love letters that you so carelessly left underneath the wiper blade of the 1989 chevy spectrum they do not make cars like that anymore what a shit box but it an awesome hot box with its busted-out trunk lock
I am no longer as young as I use to be yet I remain humble and free
Too many damn health issues all hitting me at once all hitting me like what I thought was a Bitch
but damn time is catching up to me yet I am like a vampire I never seem to age it is just my God damn body it does not seem to want to work today
I am in pain but I refuse to cry like a bitch
my doctor called asking me, hey man you want another hit? damn doc I am not a junkie don't get me hooked on the morphine drip
