Cast No Shadow

by JL   Apr 16, 2006


The day is beginning
Light breaks through
Wind blows softly
All around you

Sleeping on the couch
Musky beer smell
Bottles surround him
Creating a shell

He remembers nothing
Not you, not last night
Just empty blackness
Aided by alcohal and sprite

People will wonder
Maybe for days or years
The perfect mystery
Covered in beer

You will be forced
To join other lost souls
Forever wander the Earth
You have no control

The sun shines brightly
It makes no difference though
Because dead people
Cast no shadow
