Chamber Pot

http://charlespoet.podomatic.com/entry/2016-04-12T02_27_32-07_00

Not a pot to piss in
But I’ll get by
I always do

Somehow
Someway

And we begin as
Spots on the leopard
Then we become the leopard

Someway
Somehow

And I would have betrayed you
But where’s the fun in that
And I would have loved you

But time was running short

I don’t like giving urine samples
To people I hardly know
And my friends are over my

Piss and vinegar eruptions

Somehow
Someway

We’ll make it through this shit storm
In one resplendent piece

Someway
Somehow

It will rain money someday
And I will have forgotten my umbrella

Not a pot to piss in
But I’ll make it through

That’s what survivors do
