All for you guys.
I have gotten my self
blind drunk
and taken a shit in the cats
water bowl
just trying to figure out
how you guys did it;
and what was the secret
to fighting through the
hangover
when my stomach was eating
itself
and i was shitting out
green
snot
for 3 years.
So this poem
is for the one off's
The ones that got old
That stayed forever
Them fighting kings.
I think the holy secret
of the BEATS
was not to write for the
down and out
the under foot trodden
but to become one
stay one
no matter the
hangover
even if the hangover
was copy cats
like
me.

Milk and wood - for dylan thomas"
a man who could turn
wood into milk
didnt need dollars to live
he would survive on the word
nourished by
a thirst he would never satate
by amount of milk
or wood.
Thje ocean
like a great
glaring queen
of felines
a lover
never hearing your calls
a brutal blast
white a dark white twist
like a pint of guiness
thrown into
your
face.

"dead voices on the radio"
If half the
dead
men
had half
the life
left in the pages
you
left behind
the ocean
would have
lazy tides
the moon would
have floated
far away
the stars
bored in the
sky
Best it was left
for you
to keep them
burning
still.
-----
"You ventilate"
Short of breath
the best
needed no breath
but to
write.
The work
like the fog
on a pane of glass
ready to be rubbed
away with a palm
to expose the ocean
a woman
or death
outside.




"Drunk at the matinee" is a collection of candid poetry about stupid shit that we all experience from day to day.
