closing my eyes

closing my eyes I see and hear
all that is available
closing my eyes driving
from here to there
beats bumping the main flow
planet asia and a soft chair
on wheels lighting the best
greenery in the basement
been in this same spot
fifty-two bars and counting
back from ten at times
confused by the stray noises
the dog will make when he thinks
someone is holding out on him
closing my eyes
could fall asleep four hours
ago as it started to get dark
and I drove around trying
to avoid the impending
doldrums circular drives
getting caught without an escape
route no plan just the seat
of my pants and what was the chance
it would all work out
closing my eyes as the night
gets closer to being over
every minute not at all disappointed
by the sounds surrounding the head
in the clouds either way
closing my eyes
imagining my thoughts
could inspire as the spit-kickers do
closing my eyes as if I was one as well...
