Emotional Desert/Dessert - ON WRITING AND RUNNING

Stuck in the desert
Not good at emotion
Unable to talk
Just mindless implosion
Cactus and cholla
And I’m still a prick
Unaware of the setting
Just thick as a brick
No oasis of feelings
A heartless expanse
A pitiless wasteland
A zombie-like trance

Stuck on a dessert
Not good for my waist
Unwilling to talk
Just feeding my face
An ice cream sundae
To eat and to lick
Just calories galore
As thick as a brick
An oasis of sugar
Some donuts and sweets
Milk shakes and soda
Overdosing on treats
