Bang bang Boogey

by J and J - Cancer

so, after a drink
and a puff puff
i said pass, puff puff, pass,
the only real decision
is whether to be stoic or epicurean?
but also who cares?  especially when you high.

ah, but i remember, i said i remember
some sweet spot of the grand central parkway
a parkway yaya, but you might as well be walking,
but nontheless and nevermore, when i used to be
a working whore - whore for the man, you know,
the MAN, th traffic would stop at this one spot,
oh holy of holys, the one-spot that looked for miles,
and in the darkened traffic winter nights
i would stare off into those distant lights
and dream i could see the ocean at the end.

HA, so even in the in-between, the coney island
of the mind tosses me a hot dog and the hot dog says
"live in excess"
and i say ok as i bite it,
for who am i to argue with a hot dog?
