This is a Documentary

This is a Documentary

that says

I'm a lucky sleestack

and a trenchcoat full of lies

I'm a brisk and sun-dappled,

persuasively mellow, 

Hitchcock heroin

sun-bunny

and I'm alive!

This is a Documentary

that says,

Yes, I know I've got the vision

inside of me

Yes, I know that I will marry

my dreams

But you know,

it's not always so good --

I've got nicotine fingers

and weary eyes

the vision gives me

a bad dream or two

I love,

and I am forced to make a

life decision

I love,

but still, I lose

but

This is a Documentary

that says,

I will survive.
