Days
sad days,
mingle with the good
metal days,
mingle with the wood
exchanging polite conversation
and a few light snacks
bad days,
stab good days in the back
but those days that reign supreme
are days so fantastic
they’re like diamonds that gleam
like diamonds,
mingle with the plastic
dull days,
mingle with the fantastic
sad days,
mingle with the good
just like they always have
and just like they should
real days,
mingle with fake
sad days,
mingle with beautiful lakes
sad days,
mingle with the good
metal days,
mingle with the wood
