Stabbin Cabin


Around the room you look
after giving light from darkness took

Smell your staid smell essence
that should be sweeter upon female presence

The secretive smallness of apartment yours
noise absence but sighing floors

Routine reach for the cold beverage
breathless gulps golden mind severage

Dirty carpet looks sink dishes scattered bills,
needle the recordplayer quiet now unstill,

background crescendoes from Floyd Pink
despair and freedom are so betwixt, you think

Faded couch comfortable so sit
weightless drop relax a minute

Pirate Bang Olaffsen endtable stands
wood trinket blank-eyed you scans

Flip on TV another voice in the room
Pray inner monologue will rest soon.

Beside stoic bust of sculpture's Daveed,
Bought off the street telling you need.

Cacophony rises from all your decor
Paintings speak volumes though placid at core

Personify a room happens home not
Alone you ignore your lying slow rot
