Nice is a Crash and Burn
Don't like to be to nice
That's a recipe to be taken for granted
No you say, not true
Jaded Scorpio New Yorker
Tell me another
Alternatively
Don't want to be a total prick
Maybe a partial
You seem to respect rough and ready
I know you, don't I
Maybe
Possibly
You're snarky
Cagey
Never totally in
Maybe just beer and chips
We can agree on that

Rum Ocean
rum ocean
still
no emotion
soon
heaving and throwing
up on the waves of life
empty bottle or ship?
sailing or floating?
drinking all the waters in
until completely dry
an open wasteland
where all the sea creatures die
........memories
of a harpooned mind................

Creature of The Night!
Up came the moon one summer night
To mix its light with radio
Playing an ancient jazz delight
That paired well with a wine I know.
I sat and watched some meteors
Grazing the atmosphere atop
And thought of microwaving smores
Into a carbohydrate slop.
But then I thought the moon and wine
Might mix some fumes with lunar beams
And somehow get them to refine
The honey scent of summer dreams,
Which I encounter now and then
Like all true midnight gentlemen!

My chemical romance
Setting the scene...
Gyrating hips
Dance floor supreme
Pulled in tight
Baseline rythmik
getting drunk tonight
Perfume consumed
Ass against crotch
Smoky eyed muse
Whisky on the rocks
Sureal feeling
peace
Cocktails flowing
Sex on the beach
Hands all over
Feeling the heat
Don't stop
Move to the beat
Smelling so sweet
Short skirt raising
This could end n the sheets
Sunrising ...

Colt 45 Malt Liquor and a Bucket of KFC
Thanksgiving in July
A bucket of chicken
Quart bottle of Colt in a bag
Carton of cigs
Wasted in the dark heat
Too loud music
From a 1980s boom box
Held together by duct tape
After dinner
Greasy fingers slow dancing
Urban sex
Then a bed down under the bridge of dreams
A bucket of chicken
Quart bottle of Colt in a bag
Carton of cigs
Wasted in the dark heat
Too loud music
From a 1980s boom box
Held together by duct tape
After dinner
Greasy fingers slow dancing
Urban sex
Then a bed down under the bridge of dreams

Scoff At Poetry, I Used To
somewhere in the midst of night
emotions are set to words
cracking through
the redundancy of the working class
where the cold comfort of the bottom of a glass
is a mother's hug
a lover's kiss
a dream fractionated into a nightmare
it folds like a paper people chain
doused in metho'
millimetres from a lit match
heart on fire in the burn of spirits
at 2am legs are rudderless bastards
I can only lisp a shattered fury into the ether
there's rage
frantic burning and vivid brush strokes ...

A Purple Prose, A Few Words, Because Poetry is Evil
Every fucked up turned down, burned out, word lover
fucking hates poetry or likes to pretend they do, because poems scream words they were too broken to speak or become pry tools to get at parts of you you didn’t want anyone to see…
The bottom of my glass wants to
show me how empty my future is
everything in this pub is slick
lacquered timber
Doug the tender wanders around polishing it all until it reflects the ocean
in a cadre of light that cause the patrons to squint as if they're all perpetually puzzled ...

I got the ways and means to new Orleans
I'm gonna have a drink
and walk around
Got a lot to fuckin think about
I've binge drunk in the past
Stupid young buck pissing contest stuff
I've sculled endless bottles of beam with the lads, because we all in too much pain
to cry it out and far too young to be mature enough to say
Boys do cry and its OK
man get those tears out
If you hate the taste of wine
Why drink till you are blind
Six shooting doubles of Jack's finest
Why Mr Daniel's
that's what it takes to loosen lips
enough for ptsd suffering...

High life
My wife went away
The devil came to stay
I'm livin' the high life again
Down in the gutter
Just pass me another
I'm livin' the high life again
It's all up from here
Ain't got no cares
I laid it all bare
In my shrinks chair
My biggest fear
Is running out of beer
Gone are the days
Of thinking clear
No white picket fence
I can barely pay rent
But I'm on top of the world
Without that naggin' girl
I'm livin' the high life again
The devil came to stay
I'm livin' the high life again
Down in the gutter
Just pass me another
I'm livin' the high life again
It's all up from here
Ain't got no cares
I laid it all bare
In my shrinks chair
My biggest fear
Is running out of beer
Gone are the days
Of thinking clear
No white picket fence
I can barely pay rent
But I'm on top of the world
Without that naggin' girl
I'm livin' the high life again

The Animals With No Teeth
It's funny when you go in
after some time away.
A new looking-glass.
Just to take a look.
I have to wonder
what I was ever doing there.
With the animals.
But all the other mammals face their reality.
They are unknowingly brave.
These things are cowards.
Hiding from their own static-ness
as if doing nothing
is too hard for them.
They suck on balloons
snort powders
swallow pills
chase shots.
Anything to feel brave.
Anything to feel free.
Trapped in a decaying body

You f**ked me up
I spent the night before fathers day drunk this year.
It wasn't on purpose, at least I don't think so...
Either way it didn't make it hurt any less,
It just made me angry, angry that you felt like it was ok to break my heart,
You were supposed to be my first love, Daddy.
Instead you fucked me up, you fucked up my idea of love.
You showed me that love was made up of accusations and lies,
and that the only way anyone could love me was if I was submissive in every aspect.
Maybe someday I might forgive you,
But your faults are not my...
