-
The man in a grey suit.
No where going,
No where been.
He wears his hat
On days without sun.
He carries a briefcase for a
Job he lost.
In his briefcase is
Everything he owns.
He is beautiful…
On the outside.
He comes home to a room
Of empty space.
His house is full of
Broken dreams,
Broken hearts,
And broken spirits.
He is haunted at night by
His self he could’ve been.
He screams to the sun
In moonlight.
He talks to the moon
In daylight.
He pays a gas bill each Month
For $0.
His cold spirit
Makes the room feel
Warm.
Each day he hasn’t any
Breakfast
Or lunch.
He eats a frozen meal
For dinner.
Alone.
In a four-bedroom Apartment..
Only he lives there.
He lives in New York.
That world of inspiration
Is not for him.
He lives in the
Essex Building.
In room 107.
That is where
He passes the time
Debating issues with
Himself.
About issues that are Expired.
He asks himself,
“What country was responsible for crashing into the Twin Towers?”
But their answers are
known.
But he doesn’t know.
He doesn’t want to.
Except for if he finds out
For himself.
Then he finds the solution.
That feeling of…
Specialty.
He loves it.
Because it’s the only thing
That would come back
If he loved it.
This man in a grey suit….
Wears nothing else
But a grey suit.
He is wanderlust
And cannot
Fulfill it.
This is the mind of…
The man in a grey suit.
The
End.
