Array ( [sid] => 144279 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Empty Nest Syndrome [time] => 2008-07-31 13:47:52 [hometext] => i wrote this just before graduating high school [bodytext] => Leavin the egg was so easy
not a pinch of a care in the world.
Look to the parents to feed me.
Regurgitated euphony

Now the nest is gettin cold
wasting away, sitting around.
Feel my bones growing mold,
it's such a boring town.

I'll spread my wings and fly away.
The wind is strong, my wings are green,
my heartbeat screams amphetimines.
I'll need to set my feet.

Old age is a mile from here.
Wandering streets looking for treats,
facing some wondrous fears
and we'll all come out the better.
