The warmer winter mornings by Sam RobertsSticking to your lips, parched and splintered
Rip off the skin on a cold lonely morning
Warming only your finger tips, tarnished yellow, tip blood red
it wilts away
and slips out of your fingers
Into a pond.
Sizzle
HISS, youve been asleep all night
And you dream of that Morning
As nicotine stalks tomorrow
