As I sat waiting for my to go order of food at a Chinese spot on Los Alamitos Blvd, I panicked.
What the fuck was I going to do? What the fuck comes next?
As I waited for my beef lo mein, I wanted to burst
And for someone to give me any god damn answers
“Leslie, you’re order is ready”
I grabbed the food and went on my way home
The 405 does nothing to ease pain, it just fucks you up even more
If you’re from LA, you know what I mean
When I finally got home
I ate my Lo Mein slowly
I had to find some peace somewhere you know
I finished and picked up a melancholy looking fortune cookie from the brown paper bag the food had come in
I opened it and it read:
“All the answers you need are right there in front of you”
Oh for fuck’s sake
