Image for the poem "The Forgetting."

"The Forgetting."

A Liquor-induced Daze
Produces Abstract Dayz
Wherein, Reality is Blurred
and Memories not all that
Easy to Recall


Slow-motion Clock that
Resounds Dreadfully every
Fucking, tick-tock
Wanna Throw it against the
Wall to make it Stop

Conjured up Hallucinations
that I think are, "Deja-vu,"
Somehow, I know that I've
been there; Shit I've Lived
through
Promised Lies that never
came True

In the Blink of an Eye, "All
Gone,"
Once fallen through My
Fingers, I'll never again get
the Chance
When the Offer was there, I
should have Danced that
Dance

But, it all Fades like the Memories
that this Liquid Absolution Rapes;

In the Blink of an Eye, "All
Gone,"
Once fallen through My
Fingers, I'll never again get
the Chance
When the Offer was there, I
should have Danced that
Dance

But, the Dance I Danced was with
the Devil and the Gavel has been
Dropped; but, Ill not Grovel
