    • A Poem: Thin Air

      Posted at 10:23 am by Mrs. Ram Jam, on July 18, 2020

      you’re thin air
      i need an oxygen mask
      because you’re blowing thin air
      i gasp and i gasp and i gasp
      and i sigh

      because i can’t breathe your thin air

      you’re breathing in lies and breathing out lines
      i can no longer ignore the signs
      when you’re weaving thick lies out of thin air

      your thin air is under pressure
      your thick lies are under pressure
      think you can press my face into the gas
      for your pleasure

      i can’t breathe because you’re pressing my face into the gas for your pleasure

      i’m under pressure
      i’m under pressure
      and i’ve got one question to ask
      for good measure

      how can you be so cold when you’re full of hot air?

      i gasp and i gasp and i gasp
      and i sigh

      if i stay here a moment longer
      i’ll disappear into thin air
      but my lungs are getting stronger

      My lungs have gotten stronger.
      I won’t stay a moment longer.

      Because I can’t breathe your hot air.
      No more oxygen masks
      because I’m through with thin air.

      You’re out of thin air.
      My lungs have gotten stronger.

      And you’ve disappeared into thin air.
