Excuse My Mood (one of my first poems)
The myth isn’t all it’s cracked up to be,
This mystery is deadly.
The story you hear is the life I lead,
These words are no joke.
I was all in before the cards got dealt.
I didn’t choose this shit,
I got chosen.
Rotten genes and terrible memories,
I was born struggling.
The first hit was it,
I was hooked before it even kicked in.

This was the first poem I was ever proud to of written and I ran across it earlier today. I thought it would be interesting to see what people that have seen my work a year and a half later thought about it. Hope its enjoyable!

it's good. being 'all in' & 'hooked': you were primed & avidly drawn to ruin...

This is exactly real and exactly poetry. I enjoy everything you write, as always.

Your words AH....tell it as it is for you...
You don't use them as an excuse....you don't hide behind them....
Yeah, you got chosen so what are doing about it?
You're educating us mate through your poems...you take us along with you to better understand what we'll never experience .... You're the teacher, I'm the student ... Your writing is the silver lining in what is your life of conflict &'pain ... Never stop... Writing :)
