Awake at 3AM

Wednesday 12 May in Poetry by Funtime Ben

bq. These are the wasted hours
between excitement and romance
between take out and gumption
by yourself
alone
wishing your friends had more stamina
and LA weren’t so far away
these are the misspent days of my youth
that I wished I had spent
better spent
and unlike the past
used to intervene
in cigarettes and booze
I am the roadie
for my own life

    LA ain’t so far, baby. It’s right here, waitin’ for you.

  2. Ben Ben Says:

    Thank you my dear! I can’t wait to see you and the new place. I think I’m up for another business trip!
