Are these crickets
inside the house
room is spinning
wine and gin
in cosmic dance
why are they
so loud?
Sweat down
my forehead
the girls called
me sexy, asked
for my number
I kept walking
boots to the
gravel, flying
past a man,
sexy, lost,
I could have
helped him
find his way
home, put
him to bed
but I have to
return to my cage,
like a zoo‘s lion
a room that spins
round and round
as I drink
to escape it
it keeps spinning
and I swear
to the gods
are these crickets
inside the house
