Free Games
Clad in pink
I stand on the surface
of exhausted chivalry
you launch into a speech
about how
we must find a way
to freeze this landslide
circle around the brink
and at the last minute
slide through
the bitter eyechart
there’s no harm
in side effects
between equal animals
the wind raises it’s volume
to optimism
maybe
but at what hour
do you notice?
Off To Work....
This will be my first day at work since Wednesday. I haven’t had a drink, or a cigarette since then either….or xanax for that matter. I am still feeling weak, and my stomach is still a bit upset. But I can’t miss any more days because of this. I really wish I could get the fuck out of this town, I’ve grown bored with it. And I’m starting to resent all the people that I know…and that isn’t good….I know. Im going to go trim my beard…and walk to work through the ever fucking present snow. I hope y’all have a great day!
evermore:
I fucking hurt all over. Creaky knees, rusty knuckles, stiff back, achy ankles. I’m too young to be falling apart.
I feel that way all the time, especially in the winter. The cold makes your bones do funny things….so do people I suppose. Sleep well…
Ya know...
I really hope that whatever it is that you want to steal, turns out to be that which I don’t really care about. It’s going to happen…of that I’m sure. But I’m not ready to say here, this is mine. Vampires blend in so well don’t they? Clearly, I’m not ready…
Vic Chesnutt...
I could’ve gone up to Toronto to see him play last month, and I didn’t go. I figured….there’d be another chance. Fuck.
I am so very sick....
I have been throwing up, sweating and getting chills for the last 48 hours. And I had a huge rash all over my body yesterday. It’s hard for me to even be awake. I haven’t had a cigarette in two days as well, and I’m a 1 pack a day kinda guy…so that’s making me feel even worse. I’ve missed work, haven’t been able to write or play guitar….and I can’t hold any liquids inside of my body. I’m hoping that I don’t feel this way tomorrow.
Preacher
You and I
slip
into a quickened pace
of nothing new
even the simplest of movements
made the greatest of noises
in the rafters
your happiness shone briefly
in absence of my movement
a rotting slideshow
gliding over
erased arguments
struggling through
a bold font
pinwheel lie
praying for an understanding
back in town
retrieving the same phrase
from everyone
FORGET!
a breath of meanwhile
black coffee
double dosed
and wrought
with antique loops
of your lips
gently dusted
with pool cue chalk.
That kind of nite....
I am done writing for the day. I wrote three poems today, I only posted one because I didn’t want to clog up your dashboards with empty beer cans. I am in the mood for Gram Parsons, and Gram Parsons only tonite. I hope y’all sleep tight. And have dreams that don’t get amazing right before you wake up.
These songs right now…
November Nights. In My Hour Of Darkness. She…
