one too many
hands brace against concrete walls
searchin for somethin solid
in a spinnin world
where streetlights melt
in late november rain
liquored up white lies
slide from a tongue gone numb
drippin like poison
as dawn ticks closer
and memory unravels
the bartender’s face
smears like watercolor
thru the bottom of my glass
measurin out oblivion
in four finger pours
while my phone buzzes
with promises I failed to keep
broken bottle self esteem
catchin glints of moonlight
in parkin lot...
searchin for somethin solid

thru the bottom of my glass
measurin out oblivion

if you give an addict tramadol
if you give an addict some tramadol
he'll take it for the pain
and when he takes it for the pain
he might remember how it feels
to float above his body
watchin his troubles shrink away
if he remembers how it feels
he might want to feel it longer
and if he wants to feel it longer
he might take two instead of one
or four instead of two
if he takes two instead of one
he'll need more when the prescription ends
and if he needs more when the prescription ends
he'll remember old friends with loose morals
...
he'll take it for the pain
and when he takes it for the pain
he might remember how it feels
to float above his body
watchin his troubles shrink away
if he remembers how it feels
he might want to feel it longer
and if he wants to feel it longer
he might take two instead of one
or four instead of two
if he takes two instead of one
he'll need more when the prescription ends
and if he needs more when the prescription ends
he'll remember old friends with loose morals

I don’t like crowds
but I’m alright if they ignore me
overlook me or never bloody
saw me as anyone other than
that old bloke in the pub with
a book ..

be there again, soon
used to write poems on beer mats
in the pub,
no one read them, of course,
but it passed an afternoon ..

One night at the bar
A man minding his own business is sitting in a bar.
Enjoying some downtime after a hard days work.
Sometime later, a drunken, loud, brash man comes stumbling in.
He's causing a raucous all around him.
He sits his ass down right near the quiet man.
This drunk stunk of sweat and booze.
The drunk fuck turned to the quiet man and said, "What's your issue? Why do you look like that? Why do you look troubled?"
The quiet man said, "No issue, just minding my own business".
The drunk didn't like that answer and continued...

reign and ruin
wild eyed king of the past
ruler of shot glass realms
struttin down neon streets
arm in arm with beautiful strangers
electric
hungry
unstoppable
I devoured darkness
and it devoured me back
thru tangles of limbs
and sheets stained with lipstick
whiskey seepin into my blood
flesh against flesh against flesh
they wanted the fire in me
the untamed beast
that burned thru rooms
and left ashes of promises behind
they wanted to know
what destruction tasted like
so they pressed their...

12 steps thru the ruins
coffee burns black as secrets
and fluorescent lights hum truth
thru our weary bones
scattered souls gather
drawn to the warmth of familiar scars
words float between metal chairs
and steamin styrofoam cups
in this rented sanctuary
where shadows pool in corners
patient predators at watch
in their presence
we learn to shed our defenses
layin our ghosts down
like weapons carried far too long
no man needs armor here
just the courage to speak truth
and the strength to hear it
we’ve all found God...
and fluorescent lights hum truth
thru our weary bones
scattered souls gather
drawn to the warmth of familiar scars
words float between metal chairs
and steamin styrofoam cups
in this rented sanctuary
where shadows pool in corners

we learn to shed our defenses
layin our ghosts down
like weapons carried far too long
