Shit Motel.
Makeshift shelter for the weak.
Great dumping ground for the left-behind.
Palace for life’s big losers.
Full moon.
Empty room.
Need time to think.
Black coffee.
Dark as what’s inside me.
Shit Motel…
Tonight I’m begging.
Cover me.
Set me free.
For some, life’s always a game of inches. Unfortunate circumstances compounded by poor choices inevitably add up to catastrophic consequences. Good thing for all the disposable people in the world there are plenty of cheap motels. And given what lies ahead for this country, it’s a safe bet there will be more of them being built every day.
