Divided

I’ve been coming here for the last four years. I knew what I would find.

I would find what I lost on the other side. What I cannot reach.

I don’t see a solution. I feel we may always be separated.

If only I get could get a message through.

“I’m ok. I’m here.”

“I miss you.”

I am Cone Alone.

Morning blend

In a new poll, two out of five individuals surveyed agree that cones do not blend in well with the environment.

I am a statistic.

I am Cone Alone.

Falling down (minus Michael Douglas)

HA! HA HA HA HA

Hooooo.

HA HA!

Have a nice trip, buddy. See you next fall! HA!

I’m just glad it wasn’t me this time.

I am Cone Alone.

Sinister six

Green Rover, Green Rover, send that stupid human right over.

I am playing a game.

Or am I?

I am Cone Alone.

To frisbee, or not to frisbee

I’m not getting it.

Not a chance. I’m not risking the dog shit.

No! You’re the idiot who wanted to be so strong.

You threw the fucking Frisbee, you get it.

I am standing my ground.

I am Cone Alone.

I walk the line

That truck is too close!

It’s so hot out here!

And if that idiot I work with doesn’t stop singing that Tom Cochran song I’m going to “accidentally” knock him into oncoming traffic. I’d much rather listen to Stephen Malkmus’ old band.

I can barely control my road rage.

I am Cone Alone.

A sign blame

I didn’t even want to be here.

And now my parents or legal guardian will find out and I’m going to be in big trouble. And then I can’t ask you-know-who (not Voldemort, duh) to the prom. And then my life will be ruined.

All because I let my friends talk me into this stunt.

We should have stopped, but we didn’t. We couldn’t.

This is a bad sign.

I should have been octagone by now.

I am soooo grounded.

I am Cone Alone.

Policed to meet you

Fuzz.

Pig.

Fascist.

I’ve had all the derogatory sobriquets slung at me.

But I keep walking the beat.

And I keep running into some of the worst society has to offer.

“Hey. Just what do you think you’re doing here?”

“Yeah, you. This area is for authorized personnel only. I can’t have you just hanging around. Sorry, but you’ll need to move on.”

“Wait. Who’s that over there? You’re just not gonna make this easy are you?”

I never wanted to be a detective. I never wanted to be a chief.

I just wanted respect.

I am Cone Alone.

No escape hatch (act)

I already know that because I’m employed by the Conetral Intelligence Agency (CIA) I have limits on my political activities.

But thanks for the visual metaphor.

I am surrounded by heavy-handed idiots.

I am Cone Alone.

Polled and all alone

Why did I buy this novelty trap?

The harder we tug, the tighter the trap holds.

No! Don’t you dare tile me about your fucking political platform.

I can’t take this much longer.

I am Cone Alone.
