Peel My Orange Every Morning

I eat an orange every morning And I take my time with the peel It's my beginner's meditation To start my little journey on an even keel I will sail, as the hours roll by In my twentieth-century automobile And a hotel employee Will sweep up the orange remnants Leaving no trace of this moment So sweet and so real Ah ah good God I am sailing I am driving toward the end of my own need to drive This is February 7th 2017 I am shattered, I am bleeding, but God damn it I'm alive I am pulled, I am tossed Back and forth across this country, like garbage with the tide I am citrus: peel back my skin Open me and expose the soft wet inside Ah, I -oh hell yeah --- Peel My Orange Every Morning - Ezra Furman
