running out of inspiration means something
must be coming to an end
I hate that feeling of déjà vu but here we go
again
I never know the end is coming before it gets
here
it's a feeling like a waterfall is up ahead and
I'm canoeing
or I'm stuck on the train track and the car
wont start
that's how I know I must be in a really good
movie
I never can figure out who did it or how the
good guy is going to get away
love affairs end that way with a business as
usual sunrise
then you get that odd look or someone says we
need to talk
she says we need to talk but I would rather be
run over by a truck
once that's been said there's nothing left to
talk about
you can hear the inspiration leaving like air
escaping a flat tire
there's nothing left but suitcases and sad
paperwork
isn't life just a constant series of surprises
and disasters
so that is the way it ends like the poet said
with a blind side whimper
and I am running out of inspiration but what
does that mean
where does the next poem come from or the
final love affair
it's intermission time and the reels are being
changed
or maybe the movie is over and the next feature
is about to start
and then I realize I never see the end coming
but I never see the beginning
maybe there is just enough time to get a coke
and some Whoppers
