she is
sick she can't really
make decisions for herself but
everyone is expecting her to she
lives in lost
angeles blue
distances away
from angels she
is mentally
sick and everyone
is expecting her
to get
better the
soul who
was always good who
never complained
despite the cards
dealt her
blue distances
away from
home she says she
doesn’t have friends doesn’t
want to know
doesn’t want to care
not politics not the wars
won’t see anyone and
definitely no one east
of chinatown
