alcohol

A Shot

grab the liquor!
poor it out;
let me taste the poison
let it run through me!
it heats me up inside
the fuel to my fire.
I cannot stop…
give me more…
yes
numbness
I feel alive when I feel dead
give me more!
pour it out!
here! put it in here!
it’s so blurred
things are so clear!
I think I love you
another shot
tequila!
YES
feel it slip down
it burns
I feel the demons escape
the noises are silenced.

I cannot feel
but I feel everything
the truth slips out like
the shots slip down.
burning me up.

leave me alone!
let me cry!
I need more…
I need more…
I don’t want to wake up…

POUR IT INTO MY HANDS
I NEED A DRINK

K9 Crazy

Your voice sounds like a bark;
Your footprints are dirty paws.
Your fur is dropping everywhere…
Put your tongue elsewhere!
I’m not one of your fleas.
Drool over another,
I’m not your piece of meat,
I’m nobody’s scrap,
You scavenger!

Use your claws on your pack –
Tame your hounds.
Teach them manners plus a trick!
I know you know how to catch
So here, catch this message:
Go lick your dirty wounds elsewhere,
You selfless hound!

I don’t want your rabies –
Go dig up the bones of your brothers!
Don’t think I’ll be there;
I’m not your shelter.
Don’t try ask for scraps.
Take your howls to hell,
You mutant mutt!

you’re next

I sit here
waiting
sipping my
poison that
makes me brave
that makes
the truth escape
through barriers
I’ve built up

I transform into
a creature of
lustful longing
and I begin my
search for my
new victim

I seek and
walk my catwalk
zigzag along
the walls of
the pounding
beat

I see
I lock my
eyes on
I take a
shot of
clear liquid
and stumble
up to you

oh yes
YOU’RE MY NEXT
