Athens Will Eat You

Athens Will Eat You

A Poem by tyson

Everyone in Athens is hungry.

Everyone wants something.

 

Money.

Food.

Drugs.

Drinks.

Women.

Men.

Clothes.

Car-battery-coke.

Riots.

Smokes.

 

You name it and they'll do whatever it f*****g takes to own it.

It’s anything to avoid the reality that’s actually happening.

 

It’s dusty and grim.

There's only so far to run before the fall begins.

It's a long way to the bottom.

It’s a long climb to the top.

The place is only proof that the chances are,

You won’t make it back up.

 

Chasing a fake feeling will do nothing but hurt you.
