((Why oh why did I leave the front door open?))
Interstate pathway to
your body
Because the interstate
had to be paved through your mind
The city official asks,
"Now how do you fare?"
"Well, besides the
headache I'm just fine
Though the interstate
whirls and twirls around my entrails
Like barbed-wire, it is
choking up my soul
I suppose it is all
well for the interstate drivers
And at the least, the
government must make good with the toll
But senior city
official, I inquire you thus
Why must you utilize my
humble self?
You've branded me as
state property
Yet couldn't you have
done this anywhere else?
You smirk and sneer and
smile at me
As if to say that
everything's alright
But my acquiescence
doesn't contain your levity
And still my doubt you
consistently choose to smite
Interstate pathway
through my body
That just clogged and
polluted my lungs
Hey there, mister
senior official
Do you do this to
everyone?"
