If I am bare foot walking on a rocky road,
Alcohol makes me blobby, my feet sink into stones
- - - like water over jelly
Coffee makes me jumpy and I bounce from foot to foot
With sugar I'm all a-quiver glucing pebs to plebbles
With tea, I float unsensing, pieced apart by steeps
Television tips me off the side to dirt and sleep
Work is two strong men dragging high a me
Church, it makes me sweaty, slicking sliding slipping feet
Food and friends just turn me fainy foot forgetful,
Ahh, and Fancy makes me cloudy, for no stones
can poke a ghost I'm not near nothing no sir, not
slate nor prods nor pokes; agate nor chert nor stones
But when I am standing still, the rocks are all concerted, and,
ow!, freaking pebbles
