AN ODE FROM ME
Boom! It's time for another day
Rushing and stressing
With the same old pay
Rent is due, eviction is near
To top it all off you need a beer
You come home from $5.40 an hour
To find your super has cut off
Your water and power
Your TV's gone, stereo too..
You find something no one
Would steal from you
Your board is sitting in the corner,
Good, no peels
Your pieces of ply, your ratty wheels.
Your trucks, bearings and hardware
That's where it stood
You step outside, board in hand
You were never really good
POCT
Come
SUMMER
Summer's comin' fast
Try to talk that grasp
Passing girls
Of tan and color,
Rolling on that there cement
Will teach you how to love it.
Obsessed with the feeling
The intensity in degrees
Head and spinning
You walk away from your hellhole life Feel it in your knees
You walk, you run, you skate
Your problems don't go away'
Suicide, no, not today
Maybe I'll skate 'til I die
That I'll try
I'll skate 'til my final breath
I'll skate to let go
I'll skate cuz my problems blow
Skate with me
I'll skate with you.
-Chris Boles, Winnemucca, NV
Like fish swimming.
Water of warmth
The care of sort
sorts
No laundry for me
I'm up in the tree
Ready to drop in
To thee!
We all will
Be set free
