Catch 22

I’m on the corner of
I Shouldn’t Be Here, and Seriously, Just Turn Around. I walk into Well, You Came This Far, Saw He Loved Me Once from High School, bought a pack of You Should Have Quit Yesterday 100’s, a bottle of 80 Proof Gives You Powers, and paid with my Overdraft Protection My Ass. At a crosswalk Brakes Are The First Thing To Go was playing loudly Something, Something Where Have You Been All My Life? and switched it to I Never Want To See You Again, Something, Something. Over the train tracks I thought about Insert Forget-Me-Not Memory Here, and smoking a Yesterday passed her house for kicks. I couldn’t help but think If It Wasn’t For This, It Would’ve Been That. Or that. There’s No Place Like Home was really You’re 25, And Live In A Basement. I heard I’m Always Happy To See You barking. It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere. Even if it’s 4:37 here. Water Under The Bridge was found in a poem I wrote. I was all: Cliché-Third-Act-Romantic-Comedy-Guy-Walks-Away-And-Doesn’t-Turn-Back. Until I was at the corner of I Shouldn’t Be Here, And Seriously, Last Chance, Cliché-Third-Act-Horror-Flick-Guy-Walks-Into-The-Woods-Just-As-The-Flash-Light-Goes-Out. |
