'Reed Frey' by William DeRaymond

                                                                                              Baltimore 1980




                                                                        I am always
                                                                        playing
                                                                        star
                                                                        chamber
                                                                        Baby to my
                                                                        first & only
                                                                        heart
                                                                        self
                                                                        attack.
                                                                        I'm so hip
                                                                        the balls
                                                                        of my feet
                                                                        are red. I
                                                                        go from
                                                                        city to city
                                                                        and don't notice
                                                                        the difference.
                                                                        I'm on the road again
                                                                        tired I ain't no bear
                                                                        I'm an antelope
                                                                        slipping
                                                                        and sliding
                                                                        to avoid trouble
                                                                        get a free hit of wine
                                                                        pay my rent
                                                                        two weeks
                                                                        ahead
                                                                        don't eat
                                                                        leave
                                                                        early.



                                                                                                Reed Fry
