It's Still Life

Bad Boy, RUOK

Bad boy
Billy Idol
R U OK
You rising up weed-like, walking
On your own burnt mile.

You, snarling snake in the voids.
On a hard rock dirge.
R U OK
Bad boy Billy’s going to crash and break.
Bad boy Billy’s not OK.

And while I have your attention, I ask you, is there anything more worrying than a granny bouncing in her Stressless chair to the beat of punk rock.
