Nica Libres At Dusk

Door is locked

My gums are bleeding

Outside she reads

Outside she’s reading the evacuation procedure out loud

Clothes are off

My health receding

Somewhere she dreams

Somewhere she’s dreaming

Of Caribbean

Nica libres at dusk

While the faithful disposed of a generation

And all of the mountains whispers knowingly

I order a Colada and sit to count my dollars

And watch eagle soar in circles

Perpetually

Door is locked

My gums are bleeding

Outside she reads

Outside she’s reading the evacuation procedure out loud

Clothes are off

My health receding

Somewhere she dreams

Somewhere she’s dreaming

The Caribbean

Nica libres at dusk

While the faithful disposed of a generation

And all of the mountains rumble knowingly

I order a colada and sit to count my dollars

And watch eagle soar in circles

Perpetually

Forever, forever such a beautiful thing

Now I am older

I don't look over my shoulder

I know what is there in front of me

Ten marlboro cigarettes the rolled butts into the bottles

Today I will stare at the sea

'Till my eyes have had enough

Enough, is that enough?
