His unwashed hair clings to his eyes ad his lips; clumsy,
Like some kiss in the dark,
And he has a pair of paper wings instead of a heart.
Standing still as a statue
He waits for loose change,
And he never sings,
And he never gets laid.
He’s been waiting seven years
For that pre-Raphaelite girlfriend of his
Who never showed up.
And he’ll wait seven more.
Half his CDs are wrapped in plastic,
And he doesn’t tell a soul, but he listens to Blur,
And slowly he’s started to think more
about lingerie than girls.
Starving himself pretty,
I can trace the skull
Beneath his cheeks.
“Looks like my lucky day”,
I write on the headboard in lipstick.

Not entierly sure where this came from, I barely even remember writting it. It seems far more angry reading it back than it did at the time, though.
Only seems to work if you read it outloud, fairly snappy, in that Tom Waits Anecdote kind of voice.
