The Invisible Man

Oh Invisible Man

Where have you gone again?

Was it to party and dance? 

Wasting your liver away just for a chance

To be seen? 

Invisible man

Seen only when heard

Gone before you can see him

Even the seed he planted 

In those poor women's stomachs 

Do not get to know their planter as they grow.

Living comfortably

Laughing boisterously

Spending carelessly the money you shouldn't have

While the unfortunate mothers 

Tends carefully to the seed you've left to sprout

Without your care.

Invisible man

Money suddenly as transparent as he is 

When it's time to give his part of the share

For the many seeds he did not tend to. 

Liver seemingly, tiredly 

running a marathon to keep up with your habits.

But suddenly your body unable to keep up

Your liver fell. 

As you lay in your final moments

Your body is now as toxic 

As that brown bottle you never seemed to put down

You realize you're not the only invisible person here

As the many women you've met seemed to disappear

the longer you're there.  

Invisible man

What did you expect?

A party? A dance?

‘Some’ child  in your hands?

Invisible man you didn't see.

That this was not the right way for you to be seen.
