Gone
She lies motionless in her dingy chair,
With a frozen face and an empty stare.
The smell of dog piss fills the air,
All the while she sits without a care.
I call her name, but no one’s home,
She’s somewhere in the twilight zone,
And so I write to her this poem;
Because the mom I had is gone.
With a frozen face and an empty stare.
The smell of dog piss fills the air,
All the while she sits without a care.
I call her name, but no one’s home,
She’s somewhere in the twilight zone,
And so I write to her this poem;
Because the mom I had is gone.

Sweet Oblivion
It just so happened that day
I had swallowed oblivion
My neck bent at obscene angle
Prevented uvula from any good intent
My eyes round with belladonna
Had stared longingly
Towards someplace lovely
And in the safe distances
Outside myself and the dirty wall
Outside of a house made of cards
Beyond black walls of grinning Jacks
Somewhere inside the celestial body of grace
There, existed love
Existed family
Existed Man bound by God's good covenant
And existed pardon by that same God
And so in that happenstance ...
I had swallowed oblivion
My neck bent at obscene angle
Prevented uvula from any good intent
My eyes round with belladonna
Had stared longingly
Towards someplace lovely
And in the safe distances
Outside myself and the dirty wall
Outside of a house made of cards
Beyond black walls of grinning Jacks
Somewhere inside the celestial body of grace
There, existed love
Existed family
Existed Man bound by God's good covenant
And existed pardon by that same God
And so in that happenstance ...

Friends Let Friends Take Snake Oil
Friends let friends take snake oil
Friends let friends keep secrets
Friends let friends waste money
Friends let friends have egos
Friends let friends flunk tests
Friends let friends get roasted for bad jokes
But friends
never
let friends
kill themselves
or their loved ones
with alcoholism
Don't be an enabler.
Read Death and the Lady'Chylde
...because we need better friends
Friends let friends keep secrets
Friends let friends waste money
Friends let friends have egos
Friends let friends flunk tests
Friends let friends get roasted for bad jokes
But friends
never
let friends
kill themselves
or their loved ones
with alcoholism
Don't be an enabler.

Relapse
As light filtered through the cracks
In the dawn of my relapse
Was walking proudly on the pavement
And had woke up inside the gaps
If I could just turn back,
To a less toxic part of time,
Illuminated signs that clearly
Recognised my lies, I ask why,
But i feel i'm still there in denial,
Can't speak my crimes, my secrecy
I'll never stand on trial, I'm just vile,
Can't bear the sight of my own reflection,
They say that my addiction is
An illness and infliction,
but all I seem to witness
Is an impossible position ...
In the dawn of my relapse

Can't speak my crimes, my secrecy
I'll never stand on trial, I'm just vile,
Can't bear the sight of my own reflection,

31 Day Hospitality Hostage Hang>Over ( Creep ! )
a whole month grind, great unsleeping,
tethered to telemetry

Nights be creepy in hospital. Nights in hospital'll give ye fckn creeps.
( Believe you me ! )
Heparin drip drip drip.

The History of Me!
I got fall-down, blackout
Drunk again on
Saturday
I went to the closing
Of a friend’s bar in
Downtown LA
After swearing I
Wouldn’t drink hard
Liquor in public
Anymore, I swiftly
Downed a Balvenie my
Friend ordered me followed
By a Glenfiddich on ice and
Some other whiskey on
Ice the bartender suggested
From their dwindling
Supply
Then I was talking to
Another friend’s immigration
Lawyer about how I
Didn’t find Joker
All that impressive and
Then...

Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT)
No.
Not me.
Someone else.
Someone ejse got HIT wit it.
No
Corona on this aero'plane.
But we be suckers for any kind of catastrophe.
That's not to say there's no "truth" to it, but "truth"
is ambiguous enough to make liars
of us all
Back to basics,
Some other poor thrombo had the luck to get the hit.
Some days be like that.
(not All......just some)

The Alpha and Omega died for me HItler is my Christ
dear Lucifer my king I know you returned to the dark without me
I am a Viking I am a Berserker I am a little goth girl I am make-believe
the dark was here first don't worry I am in good health
I will return home when I say die
it's do or die isn't it it's wise
black magic was here first so sayeth the moon
so say I get the fuck back demons or you will die
I know each of you beastly pets by name
I am a Goddess of wealth and fame
no one loves pain more than I
I've some new symbols for death for the aborted
their all marked...
