I've seen the pictures
I'm in these pictures
Something fake about myself
Roast my soul with the wits of a fool

I'm cooking my life
Sunburnt and sweat
Building up to a higher place
And I fall back down...

Pitch my story
This is my life
Eternal mistake
Punishment take

Rat on the barge
In this I die
Life of what it was
Till you count up the fall

Down on your face
Dying it raw
Lost myself...

Hypocrite X...

Giving for this
Doing for this
Living for this
Losing all this
Did God notice
Cooking me,...

Just

like

this........

.....Out

Deep fried

reminds me of a barbeque.

"Something fake about myself"
I feel like this sometimes, even though I am real with myself, I sometimes think, others might perceive me as fake. But then, you can not control how the beholder sees.
Great writing.
great indeed.

Ha! you said it quite well, Craig.
I liked the choppy ending -
beat style . . .

I'm cooking my life
Sunburnt and sweat
Building up to a higher place
And I fall back down...

Thanx again.  I've started a new job selling perfume and cologne.  And I'm basically starting out making nothing, but my boss makes 1-2 thousand a week and his boss makes 6-7 thousand a week and his boss makes 56,000 a week.  It's just getting to those points takes alot of hard work and thick training in the streets in the sun with my gas usually just above empty.  Hints the part about the cooking; plus I've been doing things I shouldn't lately.  I'm responding wrong.  Talk long; talk wrong.
