Stephen King from 28-11 by The Drew Thomson Foundation

You were reading Stephen King
or maybe, you were reading him to me?
I don’t remember things all that clearly.
It was that one about the Kennedy's -
and he if he didn’t get shot
how things would be different but they’re not
and never will be
Oh,
time is a stranger
a curious danger
steps confined to clocks
tick toking through your heart
Oh,
natural beat escape me
replace me
groveling at your feet

I know I only call when I need a favour
But, look - I’m in serious danger!
J/k
but I’m about to get evicted could I
borrow a little cash?

I need a Sylvia Plath
I need a girl with an escape plan -
or at least someone to publish their diary,
so I could prove later that they lied to me
I’m not all that bad, if anything I’m just a little sad,
I could use some sympathy
please, a sympathetic arm
a shoulder to cry on
or at least someone to hold me up

I’ve had a couple rough weeks,
I’m probably going to have a whole lot more ahead of me

I know I only call when I need a favour
but please I might be in some serious danger
I’m almost not even kidding this time,
I’ve got a whole lot of enemies
that say:

Oh - fuck you man
and fuck your band.

But come on,

I know I only call when I need a favour
but please I might be in some serious danger
or, at least - I’m getting evicted I know that for sure could I please just borrow that cash?

I know I put myself in this position - but could you please just try to understand?

I’m not that bad of a guy, I’m just not that great of a guy.

I could really use a helping hand,
or even someone who is willing to pretend that their my friend.

C’mon,
you used to read Stephen King to me,
I think..?
