Once More.

Posted by Gavin Dimmock on

I’m sinking. Once more.

Drowning in the abyss.

I see the Carefree.

With their smiling faces,

Their endless effer-fucking-vescent bonhomie.

Why should they know joy?

When I’m funereal.

I want to take them

Onto the darkened sea,

Where they will sink too.
