FRIEND TODAY
In this bar
I sit, I sip,
I am an outsider here,
having travelled so far.
Camouflaged I am,
sitting as they.
Sitting and sipping
avoiding the fray.
I've some load to move,
a chip embedded,
last runs hack,
I was the jack.
Where's my fence?
The smoke is dense,
I feel intense,
switch to the implant,
release the endorphins,
heart rate recoils.
Now I'm back,
another sip,
warm smooth whiskey
wise key
double me, his_key
rolls down—
its charm
as a fool
takes a hold,
he grabs my arm
switch blade
flicks out.
Pressed to his throat,
his identity revealed,
was his only hope.
Sit down friend,
is what I say,
you are mine
but only today.
