POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
persistant
lady of the bottle
slippers of shiraz
a lady of class doing your very best not to show everyone your ass
merlot moccasins
rush into the bathroom so you can gawk over him
cabernet camisole
climb in bed with a strange man who defiles your soul
tawny port
too drunk to come up with a retort, legs spread
your skirt was too short
monastrell
are you mad at me? I'm too drunk to tell
tavel
supposed to be our together time but we're drinking it all to hell
vermentino
where did our night go
garnacha rosado
where did you...

something fits the part of me that's missing
maybe your love is the piece of me that's missing
maybe your love has been replaced by this addiction
maybe your love would fill the emptiness in me
maybe your love would finally complete me
maybe your touch would heal the scars of misery
maybe your touch would heal what the drugs have done to me
maybe your touch is what it would take
maybe your touch would finally unlock the gate
maybe your touch would turn the key
maybe your touch would close this door on that little part of me
maybe with your touch I would no longer...

dear mom
do you think about me?
do you think about the last time you held me?
you carried me for nine months
but how long did you really hold me?
was it too hard to make space in life?
you had too much going on to take care of a baby right?
I understand
especially if I was unplanned
I don't see how you could let go though
you don't owe me anything
if you weren't boned I wouldn't be here you think
Maybe i'm a rape baby
forced upon some unfortunate lady
and it...

blood
when I was born my mother didn't want me
ten minutes later the hospital bed was empty
I got adopted
and turned into a possession
the worst part for me is the unanswered questions
what's my dad look like?
do I have siblings ?
what about my mother?
you share my blood, you share my makeup
I lived inside of you yet I have no idea about you
you must be sneaky to have hidden from your dad little old me
for nine months
too afraid of catholic daddy yet loose enough with your cunt to deliver me
I can't begin to be...

big sunday
oh no
its the superbowl
another excuse to lose control
think ill pack myself a massive bowl
start to gorge like a rabid animal
if im still me by the time we get to the halftime show
consider yourself lucky there's some others here you wouldn't like to know
wings
beer and other things
from zero to fucked up without stopping in between
get out of my way, id flip over a beauty queen
if you told me id find something better underneath
herbal magnet
liquid contract
hit it then pass back
cough till your lungs are black then go...

ode to 'deth
the syringe controls the marionette
this fear you feel makes you sweat
a lifestyle of no regrets
you took the plunge you lost the bet
now you wonder what comes next
can you handle this can you pass the test
a life of lies played to the chest
not even 20 years old and you've reached the crest
my life spins around me as this needle breaks the skin
good years die before me as I let the feelings all flood in
regret doesn't visit me as I push the hammer on my sin ...

I don't want it but watch me do it
capsize between my thighs
that's where I stick this pin of lies
pointed courage stinging love
150 pounds reduced to the weight of a dove
I'm soaring
adoring the world from my view above you
as I fly over town it's like I don't know you
we met last week but the memories gone from me
sorry but that's just andy
don't waste your time on me
don't spend a dime on me
next to me is not the place to be
i'll Shepard you to misery then skip town
while you spend too long missing me
inconsistency plagues me
never...

i'm waking up
angry
unchain me
insanity releases me
this shit sets me free
only to return to a place that doesn't miss me
cigarettes
really andy?
we've done this
it's just gets messy
I'm searching for a feeling
none of these drugs can deliver
end up underwater swept down the user's river
take another arrow
plunge it deep inside
I love the way it makes me shiver
Fuck my liver
I wanna get high
The emotion I'm...

tied with lace
You were my best friend my lover and my girlfriend
I was a sinner a lepper and your worst friend
you opened up your arms and let me in your life
I was afraid of harm and shaped my words into a knife
Blushing standing next to me
what is it that makes you trust me
romance isn't lost on me
but your dedication is a mystery
watching sons of anarchy every wednesday on the couch
when I got back from work, if we didn't you would pout
it was cute and I liked you
but often times I wanted to get rid of you
Just...

drugs
infliction of prescriptions
prescribed a companion for life
by a doctor who's now my friend for life
My bills alone paid for the tits on his wife
topomax to the max
it's a good thing I don't want my memories back
watch my eyes start to turn black
my fucking dreams are enough to give me a heart attack
and still I go back the man that makes me ill
because he reckons he can fix me if I start taking six more pills
It's not like he's on commission
a bonus for checking people in to this chemical prison
starting a conniption just to...

uncertainty screws with me
liquid river
tongue of silver
girl you make my body quiver
all alone
you warm my bones
you make this place feel like a home
then you leave
I can't breathe
Supposed to be a reprieve
instead i'm fiending like you can't believe
mystery it be
i'm incomplete unless you're with me
tongue of silver
girl you make my body quiver
all alone
you warm my bones
you make this place feel like a home
then you leave
I can't breathe
Supposed to be a reprieve
instead i'm fiending like you can't believe
mystery it be
i'm incomplete unless you're with me
