''The Wake''

      The sound of crashing dominoes

      as they play the game,

      the sound of screaming and laughing 

      over-aged people that brings the pain.

     Why must i stand here and watch these

     misfits? when i could've been at home 

     watching television or listening to great hits.

     But its my mistake I asked to come, I told my uncle 

     I wanted to come I felt like if I could've dug a hole 

     and put myself into the ground.

     I guess I'll stay right here, 

     and play some dominoes with

     the funny guy who loves to drink beer.

     

     And it's going to fatigue me his

     breath will be foul and stink,

     from me to you Mr. Smith at the wake.

                                                                               Tevin Smith

"And it's going to fatigue me his
breath will be foul and stink,
from me to you Mr. Smith at the wake" it feels like an entertaining letter or some form of morphed emotions transformed into raw art. Amazing XD
