By a river of Aspirin, there we sat down 1
in the familiar places.
Not hearing, not seeing,
as if we were air.

Ref.:

we have such a 'like' 2
Opening a big mouth
and waiting for the next pleasure.
We are all the addicted ones of someone
who is demanding: 'Now, feel'.
Opening a big mouth
and waiting for the next dose.
Display windows are pretty here,
it's all up for sale.
We are hung too
with exchange receipts.
So what shall we do with this anger?
What will become of the jealousy?
Everyone wants to be free,
but from what, God, from what?!
