Gambler's Ruin
Well the river and I sat down for a drink
Said 'so I guess this is how you think?'
I gave a wry smile, poured her tall
Said 'well we're islands, after all.'
I felt the fight ebb away
But the hollow weight, it stayed
She said, when you're gone I won't think of you
And I said, make my day
She poured, like water into woe
And I said, make my day
I'm paraphrasing anyway, alluding to a verse much worse
And if you think, that's all I've got, I'd love to show you all I'm not

She, flooded the land without thought
We're all made of broken boards
And knots and ties and lies
And the river erodes everything
She'll leave you high and dry
I've spent my days over thinking, over drinking
Putting days down to delay the feeling
That we're all astounded by the unastounding
Staring at screens, filling gaps, and lying.
We are. Islands.
