“Chips Bring a Party Down”
Steve Ciolek
I kept the light on
So, I could see when the rain came
Wrote down my times, no chance for forgetting
I've got my alarm to wake my up
Let my calendar set me up
But, I was honestly upset
When I saw the sun was coming out today
Talk is through waves and palaces
My life is projected on a screen
Contact and gestures are secondary communcation
Now, all my sense are fleeting
I'll need a gauge to know
My heart is still beating
Keep me safe in this box of steel
Oh, but this shivering spine is so real
I feel so disconnected
Where did that feeling go?
My arms, my feet, my voice have lost control
