Is a mickey
All that you need
For liberty?
Drown out sorrow
For tomorrow?
Forget last night?
Forget lost night?
Is a quickie
All that you need
For your freedom?
From slavery?
Domesticity?
Life so damn bland?
Wasn't your plan?
Is misery
All that you need
To waken now
From death somehow?
Be born again
From lives before
For tomorrow
