Spiral

Kilometers from nowhere on a scented avenue
Lined with poppy girls, I didn't stop, stop to say hello
Curious vendors, waving bric-a-brac
Looked me over, thought it best, best that I should go

Don't wake me, I'm falling, slow spiral into morning
Who's out there? Can't hear you
Ears covered, early warning, alarm bells ringing
Time to make my peace with the dreary day

I waited atbles, I was tipped in roubles
Wine to water was the best that I could do
Wild office parties split the silence
Loaves and fishes at an empty table laid for two

Down the spiral, spinning madly
Gathering momentum on a Disneyesque adventure ride
I fly in colors from richer palettes
Famous artists running scared as worlds collide
