One Hit Wonder

he draws kings in cardboard crowns

a silver lining

he likes books by Charles Bukowski

no surprises

now he goes by an alter ego

just to be cool

just to be seen

he's got all the Dylan albums

tell me more

he wears hats and vintage clothing

like a costume

and he knows all the coolest people

all the soft boi's

all the labels

he says wine helps the writing

still no album

he says soon he'll be discovered

i call

one hit wonder
