Her to a man that is
loaded with weapons
backed up and ready to go

known that in a brownstone
I lived in a ghetto
of the dome of this town

of do some drive and
you ought it get you some sleep
bird all my notebooks
what good are no books
they will help me survive

I needed a drink, I needed a lot of life insurance, I needed a vacation, I needed a home in the country. What I had was a coat, a hat and a gun. I put them on and went out of the room. Raymond Chandler, Farewell My Lovely (via kadrey)
