Another Sunny Day
I sit outside
enjoying the
beautiful sunshine,
with my dog, and
a few beers.
Then, I have to
go back inside.
As I wait for some
cannabis to be dropped
off.
I know that it doesn't
help me, in any way,
but sometimes you
need a break from your
usual mind, and manner.
And I really need a break.
A break from reality,
and a break from
myself.
I'm not proud of it,
but at times it has
to be done.
Sheer Joy
I know that it's really not cool to say it
But sometimes I love being me
There are LOADS of things that are terribly
Wrong in my life.
But, when I've had a few Whiskeys, and a joint, or two
And the words are flowing through me,
There's nobody else I'd rather be.
Who else would I want to be, who ?
At these rare moments, I love being me
I'm a fountain of creativity.
Yes, I may be totally pissed
Buy I'm also an artist.
Trying to help humanity
Get up on it's feet
Trying to help my fellow man
Reach his potentiality.
Or am I just a drunken liability?
Unsteadily
I sit here,
unsteadily,
on top of
4, or 5 days
of drunkenness,
and dope smoking.
I feel great !
I feel fucking great !
But, I know that
something bad
is hiding around
the corner.
Just waiting to
trip me up.
I don't know where
or when, but I know
that sometime soon.
I'm not going to be
feeling well, at all.
