And there we have it;
I ate too much
and now I'm confetti all over the floor

but their backs are turned,
never mind.
I'll clean up quickly
and try to keep myself away,
but I know it'll happen again

because I can't contain him for long
and I burst more easily than the last time
because I am an unkempt vehicle
that breaks down too often

in the middle of nowhere.
