Reflection
it’s different
the world
you had
in your head
when you were
spoon-fed
once you hold
your own menu
pay that first
ticket, that first tip
the table
starts turning
tilting and twisting
and you’re
walking around
dizzy and dazed
just want to lie down
and sleep and wake up again
thousand tables whirling
get up, sit down, get up, sit down
in the blur, there’s a man
just standing there
and you can tell
he’s got tokens plenty
but he’s not using any
just walks away
in your head
