just much randomness...
wake from a night never ended
on a couch as my eyes focus
every ten minutes
automatic alarm clock
keeps buzzing
and im forced to stand
i remember becoming attracted
to something strange
playing tonue games
with the sensitive parts
while saying
youll get me in trouble
after leaving the couch
to come upstairs
maybe no reason
but to lay under the covers
and pull my hand towards
whatever it is that
causes such diversion
the sober side of alcohol
always traces me back
to remember it all
poem on canvas...
youve gotten so old
since life saw you last
all weathered and wrinkled
pants i liked when you wore
and your fingers all frozen
from walking so far from me
when i watched you leave
footprints in shadows
walking away out of
streetlighted midnight
not calling your name.
letting things rot in the
absence of speaking
and silence takes over
spoiling the meat we once
kept for ourselves.
