3 am Blues

[Demian]

"I" am no "we" between sunup and sundown-
nor a lost host wandering the halls;
or even a dog scowling at a pack of coyotes.

I am reason to fall out of bed,
I am a rhyme wandering lost through your head-
and I will not rest till your dreaming is dead!

So bitter be smiles and sour poured laughter
when drunk from your lips and
swallowed by mad whores in my bed.

Depart to the living!
I am up too much before noon!

[AuntShecky]

Nice and concise, and I caught the Arizona reference.
Did you ever try writing "blues" in the blues lyrics format?
First and second lines repeat; third line rhymes.
Listen to a couple blues songs w. lyrics to get the feel of it.
You're on the right track.
