Grooving The Hard Way
When time ain’t on your side
For a certain shady lady who isn’t here anymore
Grooving The Hard Way
A poem by Spyder Darling
Four score and seven beers ago
Destinations were much clearer
Masquerading in the shade
Confirmation without compensation
Tiptoeing through the bullshit
Decidedly noncommittal
An aesthetic anesthetic
Trouble is a woman

By the way, if you’ve enjoyed your stay and are in a generous mood, a cup of coffee (or something stronger) would sure go down good.
