Alcohol On His Breath

i'm not sure if  
writing while
intoxicated should
 
be banned
or
booned  
 
whatever your opinion
on the subject
i’m doing it
 
if I drink
and drive
there is potential for disaster
 
if I write
and drive
the same
 
if I drink and write
what’s the worst  
that could happen

explosions of words
lost in dark  
corners of the mind
 
held hostage by  
literary terrorists
attacked by critics
 
buzzed by bees
or murder hornets  
 
hauntings
by talking ravens
 
miss spelled words
grammatical transgressions  
 
religiously romantic political
sci-fi dramatic
thriller poems
 
hang on
a second
gotta go
 
i’m being pursued
by alien hit men
hired by the pope and a senator
 
and now there’s
seven women on my mind
two that want to own me
…
