you v.s. me

When I think of you
over there
far away in the snow
I saw on my old TV
with rabbit ears
and I had a rabbits foot
for a key chain
I bought it at the toy store
and you were
grinning
always grinning
always you won the
lottery
on the dark side of
the moon where
I lived for a few years
and then drowned in
despair
your mind is far from my mind
who am I if not you?
when you are running though the
jungle desperate and sweat
fell off your face
and they were pursuing
us/who are THEY?
what is a  me?
I played drums
in your mind and
staggered up the steps
with my bass drum
in hands
and I swallowed a coke
and you did too
and WE/ who are WE?
chatted and spoke in an archaic
language to each other
but it's YOU we talked about...
