main street


by genghis gilgamesh



i heard somebody say
say what?
the other children were ands
but i was only a but

everybody else was different
only i was the same
i knew all the rules
but could not play the game

the game went on without me
and everybody won
i wanted to be the thirteenth moon
but i was only the seventh son

the bus left without me
the sun set over the hills
i have a hundred hats
but only one bottle of pills

every pill is a different color
but i have only one brain
i wanted to walk down broad street
but i am lost here on main
