sugar high


green bottle afternoon sugar high
above the busy street
and car alarms blare
making sure no one is sleeping
this afternoon the sun plays chase
around and through the clouds
here one second gone the next
time you hear the sound of the wind
pause and see into your thoughts
green bottle and a little smoke
turn the afternoon perfect
as the sun shines down like the first time
this year has much to offer
but what do I do but waste on the porch
looking down who's got anything to say
everyone in their little circles waving back and forth
trying to catch a glimpse of when the sun shines down
into their lives for a change of scenery
do they even know what they want
green bottle and a phone call to make...
