Eating Dinner With Your Idols
I heard the white grains on the beaches of Dover were something to behold
I found them loft and tiring
A day wasted sullies the taste of soul
And so I heard that Kafka's words would invigorate my life
The battered pages filled with splattered ink
Had added their stains to my strife
From this point I was restless, but it had been said that Dali's art
Diminishes the once instilled reality
That laid waste to my heart
But I went a gazed into the melting clock
And saw the tortured warping glass
The nullified reaction had momentarily passed
I sat down on the couch with hands beneath a heavy head
I mustered through my slumber
And stumbled into bed
It seems the search for purpose had taken me for miles
But staying laid in bed with you
Evoked the perfect smile
