Wrongly into the Night
I’m hanging with
This chick I have
Nothing but
Disdain for, but
Her brain game
Is the reason I
Stay and with no other
Prospects on the
Horizon.... well,
I just can’t go back
To beating my meat
I did that for too
Many years and I’m
Finally able to get it
Up with a woman in
Real life and I’m not
Giving that up no
Matter how bad the
Psychic strain is
Because pain is just
Part of existence and
You can only refrain
From something for
So long before it
Becomes another ...

The Crutch
Can you remember
The revelation?
No?
well, nothing
Really matters,
Anyways.
Questions on
The tarmac
No more
Cadillac
Dreams
From now on
We have an
Understanding
And nothing else
Moves beyond
That
Line.

Art by Retards
Under the Silver Lake
Watchmen
Mineral deposits
The boogeyman in
Your closet
Come clean in your
Obituary
Massacre at the
Planetarium
Hot-button issues
That will remain
That until the sun
burns out and
this tiny blue dot
descends into its
final nuclear
Winter
This is just the
Warmup period
Before I really
Start chugging
Along
The ride might be
A disappointment
Or a revelation
But I’ll do what
I always do,
...

Fame
His last name was the same
As my middle name and
There it was on the small
Screen for everyone to see

“You’re Not Physics!”
Punching the sky with
The impotence
of a titmouse
overachieving ten-
year olds
while I’m looking
like a dude who
ate too many
‘shrooms
“Resign yourself to our
Master’s cruel whim…
Or find him…
Guilty.”
Save humanity?
Now, why would
I do that?
But the lines of
Communications at
Least have to be
Available
Contact me through
All the subterfuge
And you still won’t
Find anything
Better than
This
...

Warmth Is Drugs
Likability is for
Serial killers
“The tv’s got a
Newspaper
On it!”
We all got our
Diseases
We all got our
Reasons
We all got
Indiscretions
We can’t exactly
Explain
Away
I was at the
Bachelor party,
But I won’t be at
the wedding
I’m less than
Four months
Away from the
Unemployment
Line
And I’m sitting
Here watching
YouTube clips,
Smoking weed,
Drinking vodka,
And writing
This
I’ll be done ...

We Are All Ghosts
There are people out
There doing shit I
Just don’t want to
Do anymore
I can feed you this
Shit piecemeal, I
can recoup all
At once,
Or I can just
Be truthful,
As I’ve always
Been some
Of the
Time
The fingers
Bleed after
That first
Hit of
Weed
booze was the
first mistress and
the bitch that would
have you from
now
on
let the light in
a little and
watch it
consume
you,
let the darkness
in and let it ...

Russell Brand, for Real
I’m living this life
For some reason
And I’m just
Writing about
It
Videos produced for
You to
Watch
Those with the
Most views
Still
Die
A cigarette is
Useful
But that’s a
Long gone
Notion
Nothing was
Ever going
To work
Out
And the fact
That we didn’t
Believe that,
Was the
Reason
We were
All here
Now
For some reason
And I’m just
Writing about
It
Videos produced for
You to
Watch
Those with the
Most views
Still
Die
A cigarette is
Useful
But that’s a
Long gone
Notion
Nothing was
Ever going
To work

And the fact
That we didn’t
Believe that,
Was the
Reason
We were
All here

“Seven Years of Bad Luck.”
There will be
A purge
Something to help
With all that
anxiety
Bad health
Years upon years
In Hell
Call me and I’ll
Tell you all
About it
In Alabama,
Shaking with
Fear
If I can keep all
The emotional
Scarring down
To one woman,
I’ll have lived
A pious
Life
Injuries
Abound,
And I was
Just one
More of
The
Wounded
A purge
Something to help
With all that
anxiety
Bad health
Years upon years
In Hell
Call me and I’ll
Tell you all
About it
In Alabama,
Shaking with
Fear
If I can keep all
The emotional
Scarring down
To one woman,
I’ll have lived

“I Don’t Want God’s Forgiveness! I Want His f**king Help.”
There was nothing
There for me, I
Could see that,
Now
I let all that
Trauma get
The best of
Me and now
I was stuck
With it
Hanging out at
A kid’s birthday
Party with old
Friends feeling
Old
Single moms gabbing
About getting
Ghosted by
Their Tinder
Dates
Nothing was
Gained and
I was happy
To be back
At the
Condo
Yes, we’ll see
Each other
Again,
In
Hell
There for me, I
Could see that,
Now
I let all that
Trauma get
The best of
Me and now
I was stuck
With it
Hanging out at
A kid’s birthday
Party with old
Friends feeling
Old
Single moms gabbing
About getting
Ghosted by

Dates
Nothing was
Gained and
I was happy
To be back
At the
Condo
Yes, we’ll see
Each other
Again,

The Lady Is the Only Thing That Matters
No, that’s just more
Guilt and that
isn’t
Life
I’m still not
Doing this
right,
I can’t even
Convince
Myself
There’s this
Beautiful
Woman
who just
got a
nose
Job
And she’s
everyone’s
Girl
I’m listening
To old music
On the
Jukebox
Nothing is
here for
long,
Except for those
Stones sitting
Along all
Those river-
Banks
There’s a certain
Way to go
About
This
...
Guilt and that
isn’t
Life
I’m still not
Doing this
right,
I can’t even
Convince
Myself
There’s this
Beautiful
Woman

And she’s

Pterodactyls and

Platypus

Dumbing myself
Down to make

It’s pitiful
It was the cause of
