Kit Kelen #1187 - tinder confession




1187
tinder confession

little arrow hit me
when I was just a kid

hit the bottle
and the bottle hit back
hit it again
went down

hit up
hit out

things were heavenly
just for a bit

hit a brick wall
steady forehead thump
called that a head massage

came away
best dressed
rolled on a coaster
coasted a bit

hit at
scored
hit after hit
hit the thing for six
could have been a little Hitler

but took a hit myself
very palpable

went down for the count
saw stars
saw sheep, saw goats
over hills far away

staggered up again

they said
have a laugh at yourself, won't you just?

red bull, will I?
that was the limit
hit out wildly

hit the roof
shook it
took off
sky was no glass ceiling
I was a rocket
reached for the stars

but I was a handful of dust
it transpired
weren't you? aren't we?
nothing breathing out there

then it hits you
the whole shebang
the Hittites knew
hid in a cave
took in the view

hit rock bottom

started digging
mattock then pick
some kind of jackhammer

so many of us here in hell
you know how I paved the way

down among the demons
and everyone’s a lover
it's so hard

after all that
in the parade
I was a hit,
single

might have been something I said
