Damaged Goods
her body language said it all
she wanted to stay..
and if truth be told...i wanted her to stay
but while sticking to the truth
i knew we were two strays
seeking some form of...redemption..
maybe that's not the best word
but it's all this shell of a man can spare in this moment
fresh of the break up with my daughter's mother
all i could do was drink party and drown my failures
in Seagram's Gin, loud music and new pussy..
fucking for the sake of forgetfulness..

Those lace up boots
Memory of doc martens
I had a black pair
Joe 90 had cherry
I first met him letting off firecrackers in his hand and he told me the secret to having balls was hidden in bohemian rhapsody
I could never work it out
Sometimes we swapped one boot for one
How people stared as we stomped around town with mismatched boots, dressed in black
Getting high on rum and coke
Also from the smoke
Motorbike madness
200 kph what a rush
Then you told me you liked to close your eyes at that moment
Like a slow...

Russia, my lovely
Why do I remember this now on a Christmas day
galley boy on a tank ship that was old in 1956
as the youngest of the crew of mostly middle-aged men
it is safe to assume I'm the only one left alive.
The ship arrived late at the port I have long forgotten its name, we had been stuck by drifting ice and only the Russians could come to free us.
A large icebreaker came and got us out of the mess
it appears the winter that year had been hard,
the elderly

Taxi Cab Confessions (Adult)
He winked across the bar,
so I ran my finger along my chest,
licked my lips a little bit,
let his emotions do the rest.
He began to walk my way
as I picked up my glass,
I think I'll get lucky tonight,
he's a fine piece of ass.
He asked me what I was drinking,
I said, "Tequila, please".
He waved down the bartender,
got us a round with ease.
I swigged mine back
as he looked at me and sighed.
"You're my kind of woman,"

oceans drink hill-quickening brew

gossipers.. But first..
Bad Luck Dumfries Police.
Maybe it is time you amend the entry requirements for “The Force”, from “basic fitness” and “no qualifications required” to “Adequate fitness” with at least one o’grade?
Maybe then you will improve the 2% conviction rate.
Hell, maybe you could have even got me convicted.
It seems the local gossips still have not quite comprehended the situation.

Insomnia
Today is day three of restless, sleepless nights
I’ve called out of work, can’t focus, called out twice
I’ve taken my pills, but they don’t help me sleep
I’m tossing in bed, now I’m starting to weep
I’m crying and shaking, I sit down outside
Can’t control my emotions, I’m empty inside
I feel like I’m lonely, feel sad and depressed
No sleep isn’t helping, it’s all ’cause of stress
But there’s nothing in life that’s bothering me
I don’t care about me, hold my breath, count to three
I don’t care that you left, you are better off now ...
I’ve called out of work, can’t focus, called out twice
I’ve taken my pills, but they don’t help me sleep
I’m tossing in bed, now I’m starting to weep
I’m crying and shaking, I sit down outside
Can’t control my emotions, I’m empty inside
I feel like I’m lonely, feel sad and depressed
No sleep isn’t helping, it’s all ’cause of stress
But there’s nothing in life that’s bothering me
I don’t care about me, hold my breath, count to three
I don’t care that you left, you are better off now ...

King for a night
I wander aimless
in the midday heat
the world on my back
just my own two feet
and a ready roller
for the road
It’s two pm
with my mouth real dry
I wander in
to a pub near by
sink a few
while they’re nice and cold
Now I’ve had a scoop
and I’m feeling fine
the day is over
but the night is mine
and I wonna dance
and sing
I wonna fall in love
for just tonight I’m king

Pollution In the bar
I sit and pick the label from
a bottle of Newcastle brown,
I'm listening to the music,
and It feels like its slowing it down
Programmed spots do a lonely robot,
hell they can move yeah they shake what they got
they seize the moment to take their chance,
the floor is empty so they start to dance.
I make a move to get off my stool,
out in strobe light feeling kinda cool
I find my way, getting back to the bar
One more drink and I know I’ll go far
Come and have another drink with me
And take a little sip of my sweet JD ...

Uncle Judge
Chapter 1
The Businesses
A certified electrician lived with his common-law wife in a rural area. His name was Mr. Bernard and the name of his common-law wife was Marie. A distant relative of Mr. Bernard gave him the pet name Uncle Judge. Marie was a fat woman, so everybody called her Fatty. She had a daughter named Swelen and two sons. Uncle Judge was not the father of her children. The youngest son lived with them and the other two children lived with their grandmother Miss Chambers in St. Catherine. Uncle Judge was an alcoholic and he smoked ganja. Sometimes he...

Letty and Skeem
Letty and her husband Skeem were the proud owners of a large tenement house in St. Elizabeth. The couple had no children and they did not adopt a child, but they had nieces and nephews. They rented apartments to two tenants and Letty personally collected the rent from them. Skeem was a skilled carpenter. He earned a good salary, but he was careless with money. Every time he collects his pay, he would gamble away most of it in the casino and take home a small amount. He was also a drunkard and he spent a lot of money on liquor, especially white rum. The good things about him were that he did...

THE VENDETTA THAT PAID ITSELF - Part Two Vengeance
I recovered from my madness. I was seventeen and I was ready to give the world another go. Things were getting good again. I was taller, stronger, and I getting my confidence back. I had got it together and started college in the scenic paradise that was the city of Bath. The women were posh, and to them I was rough enough to be of interest. The dark days of throwing up in the crème bathroom after a day’s drinking and smoking were long past. I didn’t feel like I was better than them, I just knew that there were better things out there than that. I wore sharper clothes and had walked away...
