Relocating...

'A Day in the Life'

Shooting up to get down,
your eyes spin round and round.

With monkey aboard
you double the dose
to lift your load -
higher and higher -
getting you close…

…but sky-high is coal mine-low
as deeper and deeper you go -
euphoria and depression
ricochet with pin-ball certainty
as you flounder in pin-sharp clarity,
caught on CCTV in a town centre alley.
