A MAN PLACES TWO FATHEAD GRAPHICS NEXT TO ONE ANOTHER.

It’s not about getting older...
it’s about not getting younger...
You get not younger and your vehicles of self expression just aren’t what they once were...
about diminishing skill and sense

songs you hear don’t feel like they used to
they’re all average
no tinge
no thought of
‘hey... that’s how I feel’
no connection
they’re just slightly updated versions from ones you heard long ago...
from their originals...
the genius is entirely lost by the repetition of it all

to the same effect
movies don’t move me anymore
I just feel numb
just average
just wanting more popcorn
maybe it’s just my pure egotism
my enlarged, big, fat, head

I gave up sleeping on my right shoulder
long ago...
the one that has me facing you through the night
now I face the alarm clock
always checking the time

but at this point
I’m just trying to be a little more like myself
a little more me
by being a little more you...
hoping that fire might return
