bad habits

wisps of smoke mix
with shattered music
a vomit stained floor and
the far-off ring of laughter
she tells him she knows a better place
and offers him a sea of spirits
you dry hump the night away
with an aching head
stars explode in your eyes
when your face is to the cement
he says he can walk it off
and gives you the last light
that sinks you into the couch
the last cigarette lingers on his lips
while last nights love disappears in your rearview
