my first puff was under a bridge
holding’s rough, coughing’s tough
my chest unhinged from my ribs
how is hacking love? I didn't get it
but curious enough to hit again and again
friends, y’know i wanted to feel the most
like a gift given me
from the ghost of christmas smoke
but the breeze with ease drew
heavy and certainly these
pieces flee
blowing away my weed crumbs again
I look over, over my shoulder
another burning, delicate flower
pulling in air, almost there
pass the branch over and over
rapidly hover, unclouded and clear
yet my feet are on the ground
wander up around
is it a dream i dreamt?
slowly hit the floor, slowly hit the floor, slowly hit the floor
they tell me that there's more
Tell me that there’s more
blowing away my weed crumbs again
there they go!
